how long to bake salisbury steak at 350
The baking time for Salisbury steak at 350°F (175°C) typically ranges from 25 to 35 minutes. The exact time depends on the thickness of the patties and whether they are baked alone or with gravy. Here’s a general guide:
-
Salisbury Steak Patties Only:
- 15–20 minutes: Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes until the patties are fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
-
Salisbury Steak with Gravy:
- 25–35 minutes: If you’re baking the patties in a baking dish with gravy, it may take a bit longer. Cover the dish with aluminum foil to prevent drying out and bake for about 25–35 minutes.
- Optional Browning:
- If you want a browner crust on the patties, you can bake them uncovered for the last 5–10 minutes.
Make sure to let the Salisbury steak rest for a few minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure the patties reach a safe internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
