Chicken fried steaks this evening

That's what we are having. Get you some thin cut steaks, tenderize them, and marinade for a short while. The Texas style I grew up with - saltine crackers with flour with whipped eggs and cream to dip them in:

Yes, this works right here:

We will having that with fresh mashed tators and a thick cream gravy. What's interesting to note is that Ann (a Kentucky girl) didn't know how to make a white gravy when I met her decades ago. Had to show her. Since yesterday was national cheese cake day, we'll be having that for a leftover dessert that she made yesterday.

I love that.....we call that country fried steak here in MS Its not good if you have high collesteral and on meds for it but I do cheat every now and then.

There are at least 1000 restaurants in Texas who make the best #1 voted chicken fried steak in the world. :Rofl By the way, those look great. Don't forget a little hot sauce. I use Louisiana brand.also, sometimes I just put the gravy on the mashed potatoes and use a little Heinz 57 sauce to dip the meat in. For some reason I like that flavor on chicken fried meats.

There's probably at least 1000 in Oklahoma also!!LOL

Looks delicious got any leftover

You just brought back some good old memories. We ate that a lot. It was my favorite meal growing up. Mom called them veal cutlets. She always served them with smothered green beans and mash potatoes drowned with milk gravy. I do the same with venison but I bread them with Italian bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.

Looking good Randy........some fine eatin'.......

That's the truth, and I've probably eaten at least half of those places.

My favorite meal! Love it more than I should! Thanks for the picture.

what cut of steak do you use? This is one of my favorite meals in a resteraunt. However, I've had some pretty bad ones. I always ask the waitress if they are battering the steak and frying it fresh or is is something pre-made sitting in a freezer that you drop in grease? These look real good. I have never done it myself. Gonna have to try it.

A popular variation here is Yellow grits instead of mashed potatoes. Never tried it that way til I moved to Lexington SC. Now that is what I fix with what we call "Country Fried Steak". On another note, I scraped out the last of the Prickly Pear jelly for my toast last night. :ThumbsUp

Randy, did you ever get one at Ken Martin's Steak House in Bryan? That was a payday treat when I was at A&M.

You know I did Terry, on several occasions through the years while there. That was serious for sure.
