Notes

You don't want to overmix your meat mixture or the patties may be tough.

You can use dijon or yellow mustard instead of dry if that is what you have on hand.

I love to use a good cast iron skillet for this, it allows you to get the best sear on the meat patties.

If you don't care for mushrooms leave them out and you'll have a delicious onion gravy.

If the gravy gets too thick for you add in a little more beef stock or water.
