2 pounds ground beef
1/2 diced onion
1 cup crumbled saltine crackers
1 cup milk
1/4 flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper to taste
For the gravy sauce:
1-2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1.5 cups of milk

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, crumbled saltine crackers, milk, minced onion, salt, black pepper, chili powder, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
3. Shape the mixture into oval or rectangular patties, similar to traditional steak shapes.
4. Coat each patty with flour, shaking off any excess.
