A Salsbury steak is a fancy ground beef hamburger patty (made with ground beef, bread/cracker fillers, eggs and spices) that is covered with gravy and is eaten with a knife and fork (without a bun). Usually served with mashed potatoes on the side. It’s kind of like a flat meatloaf that is either pan fried or baked. It was popular in the 1950’s and 1960’s. This recipe is from the Cafe Indiana cookbook.
