Loved this recipe, thanks Alton : I served it over a small bed of Jasmine rice to soak up some of the delicious sauce. I did add a bunch of fresh mushrooms and a splash of wine for flavor too. It was so much like my moms that now it is on the monthly Sunday dinner list.

This is a great recipe. Easy to make and very tasty. I used cube steak and it came out fall apart tender. I also added more tomatoes and fresh mushrooms. Even my kids ate it and they do not like vegis. Give this a try!

It has been over 40 years since we had Swiss Steak and this recipe was better than any I remember. It is going in the regular rotation of dinners at our house.

The only changes I made was using fresh oregano, adding one sprig of fresh thyme and cutting the beef broth to one cup and adding 1/2 cup of red wine to make up for it.

This brought back memories of the school cafeteria when real ladies cooked real food for lunch. Oh, for some cafeteria rolls and green Jell-O.

Love this recipe. It's easy, tasty and just what you want for a satisfying, home cooked comfort meal. I make it exactly to the recipe, would be such a shame to change anything.

Yum! I used ground beef instead of steak. I am always looking for another way to utilize ground beef since my husband doesn't like steak. (weird, I know Since I was using ground beef, I skipped the dutch oven, formed hamburger patties, salted and peppered, fried them lightly first in vegetable oil infused with bacon. Dredged them in flour, placed them in a casserole dish lightly oiled with the frying oil, sauteed the onion, garlic, and celery until soft; added tomato paste tomatoes, broth and spices, allowed to reduce for 15 min, poured over the meat patties and placed them in a 325 oven for 45 min. These are hubby approved!

I loved this recipe. I used Cube Steak instead and added green pepper. My son is not much of a beefeater, but he is also somewhat of a "Foodie" and loved it as well!!!!!

An interesting twist on an old favorite. I enjoyed the flavor that the ingredients added. My first time useing smoked paprika was successful.
