Patties
Oval, not thick burgers. They need to simmer in the gravy.
Brown
Color on the patty flavors the gravy. Do not skip it.
Onion
Sliced, cooked soft. Raw onion in the gravy stays sharp.
Simmer
A low bubble. A hard boil breaks the patties.

FAQ
Meatloaf mix?
Beef and pork together works. This version is beef.
No Worcestershire?
A teaspoon of soy sauce is the salty stand-in.
Gravy too thin?
Simmer uncovered a few minutes, or mash a pinch of flour with butter and whisk it in.
What do I serve it with?
Mashed potatoes. The gravy is the point.
