Directions
- 1
Make the steaks: Add all ingredients for the steaks to a large bowl and mix well (I use a hand mixer with the dough hook attachment). Shape 5 equal patties and set them on a plate.

Brown the steaks: Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Brown steaks on either side, about 3 minutes each (don't worry about cooking them through just yet). Remove and set aside, cover. Do NOT wipe the pan!

Make gravy: Place the pan back over medium-high heat. Add another tablespoon of butter. Add the mushrooms and 1 tablespoon of water and cook until softened, scraping browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Pour beef stock and Worcestershire sauce into the pan. Add onion powder and stir well. Bring to a simmer.

Thicken and cook: Stir the Glucomannan into a small amount of cold water, then pour it into the gravy and immediately stir well to thicken. Add the steaks back into the gravy and simmer for 10 minutes or until cooked all the way through. Baste with gravy from time to time as they cook.

Finish: Store the remaining tablespoon of butter into the gravy (optional, but luscious) and serve with your favorite sides.
