For the Gravy:

Instructions:
Step 1: Mix & Shape: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently until blended, then shape into 4-5 oval patties.
Step 2: Brown the Patties: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer them to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 3: Prepare the Gravy: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually whisk in beef broth until smooth. Add Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until the gravy thickens.
Step 4: Bake: Pour the gravy evenly over the patties in the baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the patties are cooked through and tender.
Step 5: Serve: Dish up the hamburger steaks hot, spooning plenty of gravy over each one. Serve alongside mashed potatoes, buttered noodles, or steamed vegetables for a comforting meal.
