Having grown up in Dallas, Texas and lived there my whole life (until the past few years, I think this is a very, very good CFS recipe. Better than most that I've tried, plus it's so simple! Like others, I buy cubed steak if I'm pressed for time. To other Texans who say this is not a real CFS recipe, well I guess it just depends on what part of Texas you grew up and how your family cooked it. I enjoy this because it's very tasty and it reminds me of my grandmother's CFS. Thanks again, Alton.

This is good fried steak, but it's not like we make it in Texas. It has to be tenderized more, it needs a double dipping of egg and flour mixture for a fatter, crispier crust, we deep fat fry it if possible, and we use whole milk and a little sugar, salt and a lot of pepper in the gravy. Never heard of using chicken stock or thyme. The only seasoning we use on the steak is salt, black and red pepper and maybe a little hot sauce. I never ate it cooked any other way.

I love this recipe! I don't have a tenderizer thingie, so I usually just use regular cube steak. II have been making this recipe for a couple of years now and it always turns out great. Mine never seems to come out quite as crispy as it does in restaurants but it is still super good. I always make double or triple gravy and eat it on things for days after the meat is gone!

I made this for dinner last night and it was scrumptious! It was every bit as good as I've had in a restaurant and I live in Texas. I used cubed steaks and I pounded them out with a heavy bottomed glass because I didn't know what a needling device was. It worked just fine. The batter stayed on the meat and it was so very tender. The gravy was out of this world. I made extra although I left out the thyme as I didn't have any. Thanks Alton, I will be making this again.

I bought mine already so I did not have much prep for meat my sauce came out to salty but I think its because I used powdered chicken brouth used good stuff and should come off perfect.

It was really good.... The only thing, I added a tbs. of heavy cream to the eggs and it made the flour stick to the chicken nicely. I dipped the chicken twice onto the egg mixture then the flour and it was delicious....Def a winner.....

Truly the best - and, I'm a Texas girl so I know my CFS. I used thin sliced sirloin and followed the recipe (added more black pepper and a pinch cayenne and it was so good. Thanks Alton!

I had to use cube steak, because they didn't have bottom round at my grocery store. But the steak still came out flavorful and delicious. I omitted the broth and used just milk for the gravy and everything was spectacular. And even though it sat in the oven for a while, the meat was still moist and tender.
This is the best CFS I've ever had.

It was a bit of work for me, and I got the dreaded club hand...but man it sure did turn out yummy! We used regular steak...and I put some crushed saltines in the flour...I think I just gained 5 lbs.!! : Thank you Alton, as once again...you come through for me!
