    • In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed. Sauté sliced onions and mushrooms until softened.
    • Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir, allowing the flour to cook for a minute.
    • Gradually whisk in the beef broth to avoid lumps. Stir in tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce.
    • Continue cooking until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Pour Gravy Over Salisbury Steaks
    • Pour the prepared gravy over the Salisbury steaks in the slow cooker.
  6. Cook in Crock Pot
    • Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours or until the Salisbury steaks are cooked through and tender.
