Default Country Fried Steak, was chicken fried steak last week


Last week there was a topic on chicken fried steak and the debate was
whether to serve gravy over this dish or not. I had posted that I was
going to buy some cubed steaks at the end of last week which, which I
did. On Wednesday I prepared them and put the cooked steaks back into
the gravy to lightly simmer for about an hour. I have found out if I
prepare these the day before they are to be consumed they are sooooo
much better the next day. I guess the spices somehow penetrate the
meat and make them more flavorful.

Well gang, I'm no fancy shmancy cook claiming to know all the culinary
secrets, but these were damned good for supper tonight!! Tender enough
to cut with a fork and the gravy was magnificent! Thanks for the
thread last week on the chicken fried steak and I don't know why I've
waited years to prepare this dish again. It ranks right up there with
comfort food in my book.
