Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds ground beef
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup grape juice
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until evenly distributed.
  2. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a flat patty about one inch thick.
  3. Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat and brown each patty on both sides, about three minutes per side, until a golden crust forms.
  4. Transfer the browned patties to the slow cooker. Sprinkle diced onion, minced garlic, and sliced mushrooms over the meat.
  5. Pour beef broth, grape juice, and Worcestershire sauce around the patties, ensuring they are partially submerged.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 6‑8 hours (or on high for 3‑4 hours) until the beef is tender and the gravy has thickened.
  7. Before serving, taste the gravy and adjust salt or pepper as needed. Optionally garnish with fresh parsley.
  8. Serve the patties hot, ladling generous amounts of gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
