Crock Pot Beef Meals
Cro
- 6 pounds ground beef, 90/10 is best but use your favorite
- 3 ounce dry onion soup mix, 1 envelope
- 1.5 cup breadcrumbs, Panko, or dried/toasted
- 0.75 cup milk
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 64.5 ounces cream of mushroom soup, 2-10.5 ounce cans, undiluted
- 3 tablespoon beef bouillon
- 1.5 cup water
- 3-1.5 tablespoons oil
Instructions
- Add crumbs, soup mix, and milk to the ground beef.
- Mix well - you'll probably need to use your hands.
- Divide evenly into 8 parts. Form into patties about the size of your palm. Set aside.
- Mix the cream of mushroom soup, the bouillon, and the water until smooth. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in the frying pan or multi-cooker.
- Mix the flour and any seasoning you want to use for dredging. Dredge the patties in the flour covering both sides.
- Brown the patties on both sides. Add to slow cooker if you've used a frying pan.
- Pour soup mixture over the beef in the slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on low for 4 ½ to 5 hours.
Notes
Crockpot salisbury steaks freeze well after they're cooked. Make your own "frozen dinners" by using meal prep containers and covering with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. OR freeze a batch in a casserole dish.- This recipe is best in a 4 or 6 quart slow cooker.
- Mix the ground beef with ground pork, ground turkey, or ground chicken if you like.
- If your family likes mushrooms definitely add as many as you'd like!
- Leftovers will be fine for 3 days or so when tightly covered and refrigerated.
- Serve leftovers over toast as a hot, open faced sandwich.
- You can use unflavored non-dairy milk or beef broth in place of the milk but add about a tablespoon of butter or oil to make up for the fat.
- Gluten free? Use crushed Chex instead of bread crumbs and a gluten free flour for dredging.
- As ALWAYS if you are on a special diet check your ingredients to make sure they don't contain dairy or gluten.
- Some people prefer using cubed steaks - that works, too!
- You can use ground turkey instead of beef.
- Use cracker crumbs instead of breadcrumbs.
- Not a fan of mushrooms? Use cream of celery soup instead.
- Use a package of au jus instead of the bouillon.
- Make this with meatballs - just add the meatballs right into the gravy no need to dredge or precook.
