Creamy Top Blade Steaks

Submitted by TasteTester

"This is an inexpensive cut of meat that, when braised, turns out deliciously tender. I often double the sauce, but only because we like lots of it; most people will find that the listed amount is just fine. This can also be made using pork blade steaks; just reduce the cooking time to 50 minutes."

Meat was moist and tender and the gravy was as good as advertised.
