Ingredients
- 2 lices white bread, torn into small pieces
- ¼ cup beef broth or water
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 ground chuck)
- 1 small onion, peeled and grated
- 1 egg, well beaten
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 can (14 ounces) button mushrooms, drained and sliced
For the Gravy
- ¼ cup butter
- ¼ cup flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl, soak bread in broth. Tear with your hands until it resembles a soft paste.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, soaked bread, onions, egg, salt, and pepper. Gently mix until combined.
- Divide meat into portions and shape into patties. With your thumb, gently press in the center of each patty to make a slight indentation.
- In a skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring regularly, for about 1 to 2 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove from pan and keep warm.
- Add beef patties in a single layer and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned but not cooked through. Remove burgers from pan and drain on paper towels. Keep warm.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the butter until melted. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk until smooth and blended. Continue to cook, stirring regularly, for about 2 to 3 minutes or until roux turns lightly golden.
- Slowly add beef stock, whisk until smooth, and continue to cook until sauce begins to thicken. Add salt and pepper for the gravy.
- Add meat patties in a single layer in the pan. Lower heat, cover, and continue to cook for about 10 to 15 minutes or until meat is fully cooked.
- Add mushrooms during the last 5 minutes and cook until heated through. Serve hot.

Notes
- Don’t overwork the mixture, as this will toughen the meat and make the burgers denser. Combine the ingredients lightly until well incorporated, but do not overmix.
- Shape the patties a little larger than you like as they will shrink when they cook.
- Do NOT flatten the patties when pan-frying, as pressing them down will release juices that moisten the burgers. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to keep it from bulging into a ball when frying.
