Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ pounds 85/15 lean ground beef
  • ⅓ cup bread crumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 1 cup sliced onion about ½ an onion
  • ½ cup sliced pepperoncini peppers
  • 3 cups no salt-added beef stock
  • 1 ounce ranch dressing mix
  • 1 packet au jus gravy mix
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water
  • chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Mix the ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, and salt. Shape the mixture into four patties, each weighing about 6 ounces, and flatten them to a thickness of ¾ inch with a shallow indentation in the center.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and brown patties on both sides for 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
  • Sauté the onion in the skillet until softened, about 6 minutes. Stir in the pepperoncini and cook for 2 minutes more.
  • Whisk beef stock, ranch mix, and au jus together. Pour into skillet, bring to a boil, then simmer for 3 minutes.
  • Return the patties and juices to the skillet. Spoon the sauce over them and simmer, turning once, until they reach 165°F, about 5 minutes.
  • Add cornstarch slurry if a thicker gravy is desired. Simmer it for 1 minute more.
  • Garnish with the fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • A cast-iron skillet gives the best crust on the patties and deepens the flavor of the gravy.
  • Don’t rush the onions; letting them caramelize a bit brings more sweetness to balance the tangy peppers.
  • Use a thermometer to check doneness so your beef stays juicy, not overcooked.
