SOS Hamburger Gravy

This is a great comfort food that you can have on the table in under 20 minutes!  I like to serve it with mashed potatoes (go frozen if you are in a hurry), biscuits (again frozen or refrigerated), and green beans. 

SOS Hamburger Gravy

Ingredients:

1 ½ lbs extra lean ground beef

½ - 1 teaspoon steak seasoning (I use McCormick’s Just a Pinch steak seasoning)

1 (1.61 oz) package of brown gravy mix that makes 2 cups (I use Pioneer brand)

1 (1.61 oz) package of white gravy mix or peppered white gravy mix that makes 2 cups (I use Pioneer brand)

Instructions:

Place hamburger in a large deep skillet or Dutch oven, sprinkle with steak seasoning, and brown over medium high heat.  Drain any fat, you really shouldn’t have any if you use extra lean hamburger.

While hamburger is browning mix the gravy mixes in 1 cup of cold water. 

When the hamburger is browned and no longer pink add 3 cups of cold water and bring to a boil.  Give the gravy mix and water a quick stir, and add to boiling hamburger and water mixture.  Bring to a boil while stirring constantly.  Reduce heat to low and simmer 5 minutes.

Serve hot over mashed potatoes and biscuits!
