Ingredients Tips for Salisbury Steak Meatballs
- Beef: Choose an 80/20 blend for the juiciest meatballs. Add ground chicken, turkey, or pork to the beef to stretch the recipe further.
- Seasonings: Match the meatballs to the menu and go for an Italian-style seasoning blend or a flavorful burger seasoning blend.
- Sauce: Beef broth and some pantry seasonings are all it takes to make the rich and savory sauce. You can use a can of condensed broth or a boxed version (add a bouillon cube to bump up the flavor).
- Variations: Use soy sauce or coconut aminos in place of Worcestershire sauce. Dress up the dish with fresh herbs like thyme and oregano, or simmer the gravy with a bay leaf in Step 4 (discard before serving).

- For the juiciest meatballs, avoid overmixing or over-shaping the meatballs.
- A cookie scoop is perfect for making sure the meatballs are the same size for even cooking.
- Browning the meatballs is an important step for sealing in all that tasty flavor and helping maintain their shape.
- Whether it’s made in the Instant Pot, the slow cooker, or the stovetop, Salisbury steak has vintage comfort food vibes any way you make it.

Leftovers & Storage
Store meatballs and gravy together in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Freeze in zippered bags for up to a month and thaw in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave, on the stovetop, or in a crockpot set to low if desired.
