      4. You say 2 cups water in the video and the written recipe says 4 cups just want to clarify the amount.

    9. Well I made them exactly as described. If you like over cooked hamburgers this is the recipe for you. The sauce was the one redeeming factor which kept me from just discarding the meal. Now, to be fair, I am not a well done hamburger fan.

      ReplyDelete
      Replies
      1. Yeah this isn't really a 'hamburger' recipe, they really must simmer in the gravy for this type of dish. I too like a medium rare burger.

    10. I've just made this and my family loves it. Even my son, who is not a big meat eater, adored this. Served this with mashed potatoes and beans. So good and so filling! Thank you thank you thank you!

    13. In the video you use 2 cups of water but, the recipe calls for 4 cups. Which is the correct amount?

      ReplyDelete
    14. this is the third or fourth time ive made this and every time its set upon like a celebrity at a paparazzi convention. i do add the mushrooms as well as just a little pinch or oregano into the meatballs, just for a little extra flavor

      ReplyDelete
    15. I saw where someone suggested Ritz crackers instead of bread crumbs. I tried it that way plus a little Thyme and just a pinch of cayenne pepper. It's a keeper!

      ReplyDelete
    16. Trying it out now! Can't wait! With mashed potatoes!

      ReplyDelete
    17. I've made this 4 or 5 times now, exactly as written. My wife and I both love it. However, I must admit I use ground sirloin. It is perfect. And, even better with mashed potatoes - topped with the gravy..Awesome!

      ReplyDelete
    18. Ground sirloin is great too! Glad you're enjoying it! Thanks!

    19. Husband so funny... he got an attitude about salisbury steak thinking about school lunch version. But he ate it like he had not eaten in days. I watched your video first which was really helpful. Added mushrooms and made extra gravy. So SO good. Thanks for the recipe and idea to make it. Excellent recipe.

    20. I think this recipe is fantastic. I added the mushrooms to the onions and just a little dried mustard into the meat. It is absolutely delicious complimented with baked potatoes and that tasty gravy! Thanks, Larry!

    26. This is the second recipe of yours that I've tried. Both were easy to make and absolutely wonderful to eat!!! I'll be trying more in the future. Thank you!!

      ReplyDelete
    27. Hi, I was wondering if I could use beef broth in lieu of the 4 cups water? Also, can you please tell me where I would find beef base? I have never heard of that. Can I use (if I can find it) beef base and beef broth for this recipe, or would that be too "beefy?" LOL Thank you so much! Beth :-)

      ReplyDelete
      Replies
      1. Hi Beth,
        No you only want to use one or the other. If you use beef base use the water, if you don't use beef base use only broth or stock. You can buy beef base in any grocery store it's in the broth and soup aisle. If not Amazon has it, here's a link - https://amzn.to/2SC0lZO

      2. I use beef broth and the better than beef base and it turns out just fine.

    29. Can you make this in a crock pot?

    30. Oh this brings back memories!! Used to make this all of the time when the children were youngsters. It is such a forgiving dish. Don't have an ingredient? No problem. I've used crackers and even ground oatmeal at times for the binder and bouillon and good old gravy master for the dark gravy. Served with mashed potatoes and green beans or corn. Yum! Our daughter used to always request it for her birthday meal! Thanks for the stroll down memory lane! Going to have to make this just for old times sake!

      ReplyDelete
    31. Wow! Made this a couple of weeks ago and couldn't wait to make it again! In fact i'm making it right now. Rarely do i follow a recipe "almost" to the tee but it was very close! Delicious! Used beef broth cause i had no beef base! Super delicious and mushrooms are a must if you like them!

      ReplyDelete
    32. The first time I made this, my wife told me we were never allowed to buy frozen types again, always have to be homemade. I use baby portabello mushrooms in this. I have made this at least a dozen times now, and it's always a hit. Making it right now for a party tomorrow, just making them as mini meatballs, and will simmer them in a slow cooker. Awesome recipe, thank you.

    43. My hubby laughed at 1st that its supposed to be a cube steak. This was delicious and even he said so several times! The biggest change was I needed 2Tbl more cornstarch to make the gravy thicker. Delicious!

    45. I’ve made this about a half dozen times over the years and it really is great. I made it tonight and just wanted to finally say thank you for this recipe. I grew up fairly underprivileged and ate a lot of TV dinners that were Salisbury steak. I always loved it and having a great version of it takes me back to my childhood in the best way possible. I even use ground Wagyu to make it now which makes it next level! It’s fresh made and taste so good! Thank you very much for this recipe and so many of your others. Your contribution to my meals has been so beneficial.

    51. Hi Larry, do you think adding green pepper would be a good addition or make the final result too strong or bitter? I love salisbury steak so I can't wait to try your version.

    53. I just made your recipe tonight. I followed it exactly, except no mushrooms, and made it in our enameled cast iron dutch oven. I served it with mashed potatoes and peas and carrots. As my wife said, "this is freakin' amazing!" It was leagues above any Salisbury steak I've ever had before. Thanks very much!

    54. Very tasty meat dish. I didn't have corn starch, so I used Wondra. Couldn't get to a gravy state. Would definitely try again with corn starch and crossed fingers.
