- Stir drained mushrooms and red wine into the prepared gravy and heat through.

Notes
Use 80/20 ground beef for the best balance of flavor and moisture in the patties
Grate onions finely to guarantee even distribution and prevent large chunks that could cause patties to fall apart
Don't overmix the meat mixture as this can result in tough, dense patties
Internal temperature should reach 160°F for food safety when using ground beef
Red wine can be substituted with beef broth if preferred, though wine adds superior depth of flavor
Patties can be shaped ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before cooking
Leftover Salisbury steaks reheat well in the microwave or oven with additional gravy
