It sounds like you made meatloaf.

Well, I can't say I'm a big consumer of "hamburger steak"; I much prefer
my hamburgers grilled and on a bun. I prefer my steak un-ground.

A couple of times in the past few months, though, I've craved beef,
so I put a hamburger patty in a pan, browned it up, and ate it
with a good deal of sauteed mushrooms and onions.

Frankly, I'd never heard of hamburger gravy until you mentioned it here.
