Salisbury steak is a classic American comfort food dish made from ground beef shaped into patties, then browned and simmered in a rich gravy, often made with onions, mushrooms, and sometimes Worcestershire sauce. Despite the name, it’s not actually a steak—it’s more like a beef patty dish served with a flavorful sauce.
It’s commonly served with:
- Mashed potatoes
- Steamed vegetables (like green beans or carrots)
- Sometimes rice or egg noodles
It was named after Dr. James H. Salisbury, a 19th-century physician who promoted a high-protein diet for health.
