Hearty Salisbury Steak in the Slow Cooker

This slow cooker Salisbury steak is the ultimate “set it and forget it” comfort meal. Unlike the frozen versions you might recall, this recipe uses onion soup mix in the patties and a rich au jus gravy that develops deep, savory flavor after hours of slow cooking. Coating the patties lightly in flour before searing is the key step—it gives the meat a better texture and naturally thickens the gravy into a silky sauce as it simmers.
