Ingredients
- four /2 pound beef cube steaks
- 3 cups vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ¾ teaspoon salt
Flour Dredge
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Egg Mixture
- 1 ½ cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
White Gravy
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2-3 cups whole milk
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 250 °F and get out an oven safe platter/pan.
- Start by pounding the steaks to about 1/4-inch thickness to ensure even cooking throughout.
- Salt and pepper each steak on both sides thoroughly.
- In a medium bowl, add the 2 cups of flour, baking powder, baking soda, onion powder and set aside.
- In a second bowl, mix together the buttermilk, egg, Tabasco sauce and minced garlic.
- Place the steak first in the flour, covering completely on all sides, then remove and dredge in the second bowl with the remaining ingredients. Ensure you cover completely.
- Now place the steak back into the flour mixture and coat thoroughly so that the steaks are covered in the dry flour. Place on a baking sheet and let rest while you heat the oil.
- Place a 1/4 inch of oil in a deep skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Fry the steaks until golden brown. This can take up to 5 minutes per side but be sure to keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
- Once browned, remove onto a plate covered in paper towels to soak up any excess oil, then set on the ovensafe platter and place into the preheated oven.
- Carefully drain all but 1/4 cup of the fat from the skillet. Try to leave as much of the fried brown bits as possible as these will add flavour to your gravy.
- Heat the skillet to medium-low heat now with the leftover oil still in it. Whisk in the 1/4 cup of flour and scrape the bottom of the pan to remove all browned bits into the soon-to-be gravy mixture. Stir in milk, raising the heat to medium and bring to a simmer.
- Continue cooking until the gravy thickens, about 5 minutes give or take. If the gravy gets too thick, add in a little more milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Spoon gravy over steaks and serve.
Notes
- Feel free to add your favorite seasonings to the flour dredge to play around with the flavor!
