Instructions
1-Getting started: Getting started with this Salisbury steak meatballs recipe is straightforward and fun, especially if you’re using a slow cooker. Begin by preparing your ingredients to save time during cooking. This method ensures tender meatballs soaked in flavorful gravy, making it a hit for family dinners.
2-Preparation: First, spray the slow cooker insert with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Then, place the frozen meatballs into the slow cooker for easy setup. In a separate bowl, whisk together the beef broth, brown gravy mix, onion soup mix, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined, then pour this mixture over the meatballs and stir gently to coat them evenly.
3-Cooking: Next, cover the slow cooker and set it to low heat for 5 to 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together slowly. After that time, prepare the cornstarch slurry by mixing the cornstarch and cold water, stir it into the slow cooker, and let it cook for an additional 10 minutes until the gravy thickens to your liking. Finally, serve the meatballs with the gravy over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or cooked white rice, and garnish with chopped parsley if you want a fresh touch.
