About

Diner Beef Patties are the kind of thing you'll find while seated at your favorite linoleum and chrome-covered restaurant, tantalizing you with its truly beefy goodness! This time though, you don't even need to leave the kitchen; it's actually fairly simple and remarkably quick to whip up a batch of Diner Beef Patties on your own stove-top! These tasty morsels combine the tenderness and shape of a burger patty with the extra savory gravy of a Salisbury steak, only this time with a little extra kick thanks to a touch of horseradish. Bring the diner to your table, just without the chrome (which is just fine, that would clash with your decor)!
