Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs ground beef
  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and roll into meatballs.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and sear the meatballs until just browned on all sides. This helps them hold their shape and enhances flavor.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together beef broth, brown gravy mix, and ketchup until smooth.
  4. Place chopped onions and sliced mushrooms in the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour the gravy mixture over them, then add the browned meatballs on top.
  5. Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2.5–3 hours, until meatballs are cooked through and tender.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra depth of flavor, add a splash of red wine to the gravy mixture.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles for a hearty meal.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
