Notes

Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure proper searing. Whisk flour thoroughly to prevent lumpy gravy. Use a meat thermometer to confirm patties reach 160°F. Store patties and gravy separately in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months, thawing overnight before reheating gently on the stovetop.
