Set it, forget it, devour it. These juicy mushroom-topped slow cooker burger steaks turn simple ground beef into a rich, savory comfort meal with almost zero effort.

🧂 Ingredients

4 beef patties (about 1.5–2 cm thick)

2 cups sliced mushrooms

1 packet onion soup mix (or 2 tbsp dry onion seasoning)

1 cup beef broth or water

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional, for deeper flavor)

Salt & black pepper to taste

1 tbsp butter (optional, for richness)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the base
Lightly grease the slow cooker or add butter to the bottom.

2. Place the patties
Arrange the raw beef patties in a single layer.

3. Add mushrooms
Scatter sliced mushrooms over each patty and around them.

4. Season generously
Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly on top.

5. Add liquid
Pour beef broth (and Worcestershire sauce if using) around the patties — not directly washing off the seasoning.

6. Slow cook

LOW: 6–7 hours

HIGH: 3–4 hours
Cook until patties are tender and fully done.

7. Optional gravy boost
For a thicker sauce, mix 1 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp water, stir in during the last 20 minutes.
