ingredients

• 4 pork steaks, about 1/2 to 1 inch thick

• 1 1⁄2 celery ribs, cut into 1 inch pieces
• 1 cup water
• 1 1⁄2 chicken bouillon cubes, crushed
• salt
• pepper
• garlic powder
• Lawry's Seasoned Salt
• 6 medium potatoes, peeled
• 4 carrots, peeled and cut in half
• 2 packages dry pork gravy mix

directions

1. Cut off most of the excessive fat on the edge of the pork steaks.
2. Season both sides of the pork steak with salt, pepper, garlic powder and Lawry's Seasoning Salt.
3. Melt 1tbs butter in a fry pan.
4. Over medium to medium high heat, brown both sides of the pork steaks.
5. About 3 minutes on each side.
6. Grease a large roaster.
7. Put the onion and celery on the bottom of the roaser.
8. Sprinkle the chicken boullion on the bottom of the roaster.
9. Add the water.
10. Put the pork steaks in a single layer on top of the onions and the celery.
11. Put the carrots along the edges of the pan.
12. Put the potaoes in also.
13. Salt and pepper the potatoes.
14. Bake in a 300 degree oven for 2 1/2 hours; covered.
15. After an hour use a baster to get some juice from the bottom of the pan. Squeeze some of this juice over the potatoes and carrots.
16. I like to do this every hour.
17. It gives the potatoes and carrots some of that extra great flavor from the pan drippings.
18. Do the following for the gravy.
19. At the end of the 2 1/2 hours, pour about a 1/4 cup of the drippings from the roaster in a saucepan. Add the dry gravy mix and 2 cups of water. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, mixing often. Stir until thckened.
20. Serve and enjoy!

I just made this and it turned out delicious! I only basted it twice, yet the pork was sooo juicy and tender. I left out the celery since I dind't hanve any, and realize I cut my carrots too small (they nealry turned to mush). Thanks, Jill!

This is sooo good!! I made 2 huge pork steaks and left the rest of the ingredients as is. I ommitted the celery because I forgot to buy it. The steaks were fork tender and the potatoes/carrots were as well and not mushy! The big bonus was my 3 yr old son loved it and had 3 servings (minus the potatoes). Didn't get a picture, left it at my friends; but will make again since we found another meat my 3 yr old will eat!! Made for Fall 2009 PAC.
