Part 4/10:
The process involves shaping seasoned ground beef into patties, searing them to develop a crust, and then layering them into the crockpot. To craft a rich gravy, a quick homemade sauce is made by combining mushrooms, water, and cream of chicken soup, which is then poured over the browned patties. As it simmers, the flavors meld into a luscious gravy that seeps into the meat.
Serving this over mashed potatoes completes the scene—a Sunday supper in the middle of a busy week. The meat achieves a melt-in-your-mouth tenderness, and the gravy ties everything together with savory goodness that feels like a warm hug. It’s a recipe so flavorful and simple that it’s easy to see why it’s highly rated and loved by many.
