Ingredients for Cube Steak
- 2 lbs. G5 Wagyu Tenderized Cutlets (Cube Steak) (4 - 8oz cube steaks)
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 1/2 cups of milk
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour - divided (1 cup & 1 1/2 cups)
- 1 tsp. Black Pepper
- 1 tsp. Salt
- 1/2 tsp. - 1 tsp. Paprika
- 1 1/2 - 2 cups of G5 Wagyu Cooking Tallow or preferred cooking oil
-
Optional: 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tbsp. Hot sauce and/or 1/4 tsp. Cayenne
Ingredients for Gravy
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 3-4 cups milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions for Cube Steak
1. Create your Dredging Station
Put flour, milk and seasoned flour in 3 different shallow bowls.
- Bowl 1 put 1 Cup Flour
- Bowl 2 mix 1 egg and 1.5 cup milk (optional :add 1 tbsp hot sauce and 2 cloves minced garlic to this mixture)
- Bowl 3 mix 1.5 cup flour, 1 tsp pepper, 1 tsp, salt and ½-1 tsp paprika (optional : add 1/4 tsp cayenne).
2. Prep Your Cube Steaks
Prep cube steaks (optional cut the 8 oz steaks in half and into 4 oz steaks). Pat dry and lightly season with salt and pepper.
3. Prepare your oil
Heat oil and/or tallow in a cast iron or somewhat deep skillet so there is ½ inch oil and tallow mix in the skillet (enough to fry the cube steaks, you may need more or less oil/tallow). Heat to about 325 degrees or when it sizzles when you drop a pinch of flour in.
4. Dredge Your Cube Steaks
While the oil is heating up, dredge each steak in the flour only; shake off excess. Dip dredged steak in the egg/milk mixture, drip and then dredge it in the seasoned flour. Place breaded steaks on a rack on plate before frying. Repeat with remaining steaks.
5. Fry Your Cube Steaks
Fry Steaks until golden brown (2-3 minutes per side). You will more than likely need to fry in batches. After both sides are nice and golden brown, remove them and place on a plate with a paper towel to drain a bit. Cover to keep warm and continue frying.
Directions for Gravy
1. Drain all but ¼ cup of liquid and as much remnants as possible. Return the skillet with remnants and heat oil to med-low heat.
2. Add ¼ cup flour in oil, scrape up brown bits, stir until flour is combined fully with oil.
3. Stir in 3-4 cups milk, increase heat to medium and bring to simmer. Cook until thick, stirring often; approximately 6 minutes.
4. Season with salt and pepper to taste
