Instructions:

1. Brown the Patties (Optional but recommended):

   In a skillet over medium heat, quickly brown the beef patties for about 2 minutes per side. (You’re not cooking them through — just adding flavor.)

2. Layer in Crockpot:

   Place the sliced onions and mushrooms (if using) in the bottom of the crockpot.

   Lay the browned or frozen patties on top.

3. Mix the Sauce:

   In a bowl, stir together the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, dry onion soup mix, Worcestershire sauce, and ½ cup water or broth. Pour this mixture over the patties.

4. Cook:

   • Low for 5–6 hours

   • or High for 3 hours

5. Optional Thickening:

   If you want a thicker gravy, in the last 30 minutes, mix the cornstarch and water and stir it into the crockpot. Let it cook uncovered for a bit to thicken.

6. Serve:

Over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice.

Notes:

• You can use frozen hamburger patties directly without thawing, just add an extra 30 minutes to the cook time.

• Add a dash of garlic powder or a little mustard powder to the sauce if you like a little extra zip.
