MY GRANDMOTHER'S SWISS STEAK



My Grandmother's Swiss Steak image

There are a lot of swiss steak recipes here, but all of them have a lot of "stuff" in it. My grandfather was a very picky eater, and this is the way my grandmother made swiss steak. Granddaddy loved it, and we all did, too. In fact, my sister always wanted Swiss Steak for her birthday dinner. The gravy is best on mashed potatoes, but it's not too shabby over rice, either. This is not fancy, but it sure is good! My grandmother used her home-canned tomatoes in this, but it's almost as good with store-bought.

2 lbs round steaks
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes

  • Brown steaks on both sides in hot oil. Remove from skillet and place in oven-safe dish. (I use a 9 x 13 pyrex dish.).
  • Add onions to skillet and saute until they start to brown around the edges. Pour in tomatoes and stir to loosen browned bits on bottom of skillet.
  • Pour tomato mixture over steaks. Cover (I use foil) and bake at 350 for an hour or till meat is very tender.

GRANDMA'S SWISS STEAK



Grandma's Swiss Steak image

This is my Grandmother's recipe that I grew up with. My mother made it and now I make it. I try to use organic as much as possible, but you don't have to. I hope you enjoy this meal as much as I have through the years. Note: I do not have pictures because I'm doing Weight Watcher's right now, but I will post some when I make this dish again. Thank you!

SLOW-COOKED SWISS STEAK

This is one of my favorite recipes to make because I can flour and season the steaks and refrigerate them overnight. The next morning, I just put all the ingredients in the slow cooker, and I have a delicious dinner waiting when I arrive home from work. -Sarah Burks, Wathena, Kansas

SLOW COOKER SWISS STEAK



Slow Cooker Swiss Steak image

I threw this together in my crock pot one day and we loved it! A little time consuming because I sauteed the vegetables and browned the meat first, but it's well worth it. Browning the meat first gives it a better flavor. This is great with mashed potatoes!
