1 1/4 lbs. ground beef (I use 80/20 ground chuck)
3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons Montreal Steak Seasoning
1/4 cup finely diced yellow onion
1/4 cup + 1/3 cup heavy cream
Salt
Pepper
Bacon drippings or olive oil
8 oz. button mushrooms, chopped
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon beef stock or bouillon
1 tablespoon butter
1. In a medium bowl, use your hands to combine ground beef, Worcestershire, Montreal seasoning, onions, and 1/4 cup cream.
2. Divide the beef mixture into 4 sections and form each into patties. Season both sides of each patty with salt and plenty of pepper.
3. Warm a large skillet over medium heat. One hot, add a teaspoon or two of bacon drippings or oil. Once melted, add the beef patties.
4. Cook beef patties until their internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. Remove from the skillet and set on a plate, tenting with foil. Set aside.
5. Reduce heat to medium and add the mushrooms. (If there's little fat in the pan, add a dollop of butter.) Saute for about 1 minute.
6. Add the swater, deglazing the pan by scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet.
7. Add the remaining cream and any juices that have accumulated on the plate the patties are sitting on. Simmer until sauce thickens a bit. Stir in the butter and season with salt and pepper.
8. Serve the patties with sauce spooned over them.
