Ingredients You’ll Need

I love this recipe for Crockpot Salisbury Steak because it uses so many simple sauces and seasonings (even though it tastes like a million bucks!) I’m sure you’ll have a lot of these ingredients on hand already. Check out the recipe card for exact measurements.

Ground Beef: The heart of the dish, lean ground beef is ideal. You could also use ground turkey for an even leaner version of this Salisbury Steak recipe! Bread Crumbs: Bulk up and add texture to the meatballs. Ketchup: Sweetens and moistens the meatball mixture. Worcestershire Sauce: Deepens flavor with all that savory goodness! Mustard Powder: Adds a kick of flavor to the meat patties. Egg: Binds everything together. Salt & Pepper: Season to your preference! Butter: For browning the patties in before slow cooking. Mushrooms: Add earthy flavor and a wonderful meaty texture. Large Onion: Adds sweetness and texture to the gravy. Beef Broth: The base of the flavorful gravy. You could also use mushroom or vegetable broth if you prefer. Cornstarch: So the gravy can thicken to perfection. Water: Thins the cornstarch slurry for smooth mixing.

Extras:

Fresh Chopped Parsley (optional): A vibrant garnish that also adds a boost of flavor to the Crockpot Salisbury Steak. Mashed Potatoes (for serving): The perfect accompaniment to soak up the delicious gravy. If you’re looking for something easy, try these Instant Pot mashed potatoes!

How to Make Salisbury Steaks in a Crockpot

Mashed Potatoes: Mashed potatoes are a must with Salisbury steak! Try my dad’s mashed potatoes or these easy instant pot potatoes. Noodles: If you don’t like mashed potatoes, serve this crockpot Salisbury steak over a bed of noodles. We prefer egg noodles but feel free to use any noodles you like! Vegetables: Serve with a side of veggies like these green beans for a complete meal!

In the Refrigerator: Store for 2-3 days in an airtight container. To Reheat: I always like to reheat leftover Salisbury steaks in a skillet over medium heat. If you need to add moisture back to the patties or gravy, add a splash of beef broth. You can also reheat your steaks in the microwave with 1-minute cooking intervals.
