I'm sorry but my family did not like this. I followed the recipe exactly as written and our meat had no flavor to it at all. I did add a lot of salt and pepper but I think it needed that and more while it was cooking. It smelled so good when it was cooking and I thought they gravy would draw through the meat but it didn't.

An easy and tasty recipe. I don't usually like meats cooked in a crockpot, but this one proved me wrong (again). How nice it makes its own yummy gravy which makes dinnertime a snap. If you are not pressed for time, another worthwhile cube steak recipe is KathyP53's Chicken-fried Steak (#151732). Like Skeeter and a few other reviewers, I didn't like cube steak much either until I tried this one and that one!

This was absolutely wonderful! I used 1 brown gravy mix and 1 mix of onion soup mix because I only had 4 cube steaks but followed the rest of the recipe. My husband and mother in law both loved it! The leftovers were even better and I of course got them, because I found the recipe! :) Thanks a bunch for sharing!

I HATE cube steak and actually really liked this recipe. Hubby loved it! I couldn't find the onion mix gravy so I used the two brown gravy mixes and just some extra chopped onion flakes! A keeper! Thanks!

I have made this several times now and it always turns out perfect. My husband did not like cube steak until I tried this recipe, now he asks for it all the time. Thanks so much for a great recipe.
