Celebrating Father’s Day
I am dishing up some Man Food today! In honor of Father’s Day, I’ve made one of Dad’s favorite dishes; Salisbury Steak. To go WITH the Salisbury Steak, I’ve made some Loaded Mashed Potatoes and some Mushroom Gravy to pour over top. Okay. Stop drooling. I know it looks delicious, but there’s a post to read.
Next week, I’m lucky enough to host TWO dads!! S’s dad and step-mom are passing through and we’ve offered up our new guest bedroom for their stay for the night. We’re doing the dinner thing with them and since MY dad and step-mom are so close we’ve asked them to join us. How exciting is that?? I don’t think any of my family has met any of S’s family. There was no wedding for people to attend, so … yeah.
No. I won’t be cooking for them. Maybe a dessert? *shrugs* I have to make some cookies for the luau at work anyway. We’ll see how that goes.
The best part about this recipe, it’s not expensive! If you’re on a budget because you spent all your money on your Dad, this is just ground beef. Yeah, it’s not going to taste like a filet, but this is pretty darn tasty, if I may say so! And Dad usually cleans his plate when I make it. Granted, it’s been a few years since I’ve cooked for Dad. The last time we had them over, I think it was a Christmas? And we made a standing rib roast? NO I think it was chicken picatta?
Dad Knows Me Best
No one understands that more than Dad. He has the same type of memory. Granted, he can use age as an excuse. I just…well…have no excuse. LOL
And honestly, there’s no excuse for you NOT to make this for your father either this weekend or next year. Or maybe for his birthday! Or even just because! Who says you have to have an excuse to pamper your father with a hearty meal like this one?

Happy Monday! Lou Lou Girls
I love potatoes any kind of way, but mashed is close to the top of the list. LOADED mashed bumps it way, way up!
Oh, man this looks so good. Hope you have a great day!
Hiya, I'm a co-host and wanted to say…thank you for hosting also! This sounds awesomely delicious.
Oh this is a man's meal that my bf would love to have put in front of him for dinner!!
Wait… salisbury steak made with ground beef – I have to try this. I'm so used it being made with cubed steak (which I don't care for).
Salisbury steak and mushroom is definitely good man food! Yum!
I love Salisbury steak! Mushrooms can only make it better, pile them on!
I heat ya, Cindy! I wasn't always the same way, but I am now and with baby bellas aka creminis. YUM!
Ermagawd I just had lunch but I'm drooling looking at your photos! That's a dreamy delicious meal right there. I've never had salisbury steak but it's basically hamburger covered in tasty gravy so I'd have no problem cleaning my plate either! I laughed when I read your paragraph about your bad memory because mine is the same. I can't remember what I did this morning, much less what I did a few years ago. It's terrible. I can't blame old age either!
Okay. I totally LOL at that first bit! That's just too funny. And the memory thing! THANK GAWD! I'm not the only one with a crap memory. Thank you SO much!
You know my husband isn't the biggest fan of mashed potatoes so I never get to have it until that is I introduced him to loaded mashed potatoes. Now he is very happy for us to have mashed potatoes which makes me happy because it is an ultimate comfort food for me.
I can't imagine NOT having mashed potatoes whenever I want. That's just depressing! Thanks to loaded mashed potatoes you can! YAY! Thanks you.
Good old comfort food! It looks amazingly delicious. Pinned!
Thanks!
This is certainly man food in my book. Comfort man food that is! It sounds delicious!!!

Thanks, Renee. Sometimes we just want what's familiar. This is an elevated familiar. 🙂
Looks wonderful. I grew up on salisbury steaks with lots of mash potatoes. A family favorite for sure.
We did, too, Sherron. It was a tasty yet inexpensive meal to make. This one is so much better than my childhood versions, though. LOL
Salisbury steaks with potatoes are the perfect meal to satisfy the men in everyone's life!! 🙂
Thanks, Betsy! I thought so, too.
We don't eat beef / steak so I have to pass on the salisbury steak but I love the potatoes! Loaded baked or mashed potatoes are my favorite.
Hmm…now there's an idea, Ashley. I'll have to try t a #MeatlessMonday version of this one day. I'm just starting to make veggie patties so that would be a fun experiment.
I am going to try your version of salisbury steak. Last time I made them, they were just okay.
I think they trick, Marlene, is to make sure you season the meat very well. The flavorings in this recipe are delicious. I hope you like it.
Now that is real man food, meat and potatoes and it looks excellent!!
Thanks, Tara. My man loves it! I'm sure any man would.
Truly one of my family's favorite entrees, so I MUST try your recipe! I can never have enough mushrooms on top of salisbury steak! Such a classic recipe! Pinning and saving!
Roz
Thank you, Roz. Please let me know how you like my recipe.
This with a ton of black pepper was one of my grandpa's faves!
LOVE black pepper. How awesome? I am always adding black pepper to my dishes because I know that bite it offers up.
The definition of manfood right here…steak and potatoes!
That's what I thought, Shaina! Thanks for stopping by.
These look way better than the salisbury steaks I remember eating decades ago! And the guys around here would love them!
I know what you mean, Liz. My memories of Salisbury steak isn't all that great, either, but these are FABULOUS!
I love the title "man food". It does look delish! I hope hour having a great Sunday!
Thanks, Leslie! Man food was a fun title. I hope you visit some of the other team members to see their Man Food. 🙂 Happy Sunday to you!
Oh yum!
It was, Nichole!
