My Own Cube Steak and Gravy

Marsha - this is a fabulous recipe. I love how quick and easy it is finished but how tender the beef cube steak becomes after cooking. My family enjoyed every bite. Served with mashed potatoes too so I could use some of the extra gravy! My hubby is going to make a sandwich with the one remaining piece of steak tomorrow. This is definitely a keeper for our family!

Great, easy recipe. The only thing different I did was saute some diced onion in with the cube steak, and mixed it in with the gravy. I used the 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup also, and it did great! Was a hit with even my 4 year old! Thanks, we'll definitely use this one again.

I found that I had way too much flour leftover(1/2C) after dredging the meat and yet the recipe didn't say to add the extra in anywhere. I ended up adding 2 Tbsp to the pan drippings and made a roux, then continued on with the recipe. The other reviews don't mention too much flour so I'm not sure what happened there. The flavour was good but the meat turned out a bit on the dry side. I may try this again and perhaps reduce the browning time. I am glad I tried the recipe, thanks for posting.

I was hesitant to make this recipe because I typically don't like tinned soups as sauces....but.....I'm so glad I tried it! It was delicious and the soup actually imparts a lovely flavour. The meat was tender. The only change I made was to add fresh mushrooms to the sauce. I used skim milk because that's what I had and the consistency was not affected negatively at all.
I served it with mashed potatoes and broccoli....the sauce was lovely over the potatoes. My children have already asked me when I will be making again.
Thanks for sharing, Marsha!

Very good, cheap, and easy! I used fat free cream of mushroom and skim milk because that was what I had and it still turned out great!

Very good, but you may need to modify. I made this for 2 adults and 3 children and needed to make more flour mixture even though I was only using 5 steaks. When making the gravy I substituted the cream of mushroom with cream of chicken. I also doubled the gravy recipe so that there would be enough for the entire family. I served it over rice and everyone enjoyed it!

I made this with 6 cube steaks. I had trouble with the breading sticking (mostly on the second batch to fry) and the steaks ended up a bit tough because the pan was overcrowded. Also, the gravy wasn't enough for that many steaks and rice. It was flavorful and the family enjoyed it, so I would probably make it again with only 4 smaller cube steaks.

This is fantastic. The cube steaks were tender and full of flavor. The gravy was terrific. Served it over white rice and didn't have any leftovers!

My husband and father-in-law loved this. As most other reviewers mentioned, this is very tender. I reversed the milk and water amounts (1 c. milk, 1/2 c. water), but next time I will follow the recipe.

I was amazed how tender the cube steaks were. Usually they are dull and tough. Tasty! My "picky" son ate 3 pieces! Great family dish.

This was very good. The cube steak was tender and the gravy was so good poured over everything.

Good basic recipe. Was looking for something that didn't require a lot of gravy mixes (usually way to high in sodium) for our family. I made a few changes. I used a combination of light flavored olive oil and butter, cause I have found butter by itself tends to burn easily. Instead of onion and garlic powder I used the real thing, sauteing sliced onion till lightly golden, then adding 5 cloves of minced garlic toward the end (it cooks faster) . I omitted the salt, because I used Progresso beef broth instead of water and its got plenty of salt. I sauteed 8 oz. of baby bella mushrooms in with the onion and garlic) so I could omit the can of mushroom soup. I then added milk and cream, using a 2 to 1 ratio. Put in on simmer for 30 minutes, then served with mash potatoes and glazed carrots. It was a big hit. Thanks again.

Delicious and easy. I used reduced fat mushroom soup, and it still turned out great!

I have made this recipe several times and it is always wonderful. The only thing I do differently is tear up the cube steak in chunks before I season and cook them. I like doing this and then putting over mashed potatoes with the gravy, you get a bite of meat with potatoes and gravy. I am going to fix them tonight. Thanks for a great recipe!
