Beef round steak is one of the more popular beef cuts that many people enjoy especially the Cajuns. Inexpensive cuts of meat can be made tender with the use of a meat marinade or pounding. Ziploc bags work great for marinating meats. They don’t take as much space in the refrigerator and can be turned easily to coat all sides.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup bacon drippings or cooking oil
- 1 round steak
- 3/4 cup flour
- 2 large onions, chopped
- 1 medium bell pepper, chopped
- 2 stalks of celery, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup water
Directions
Step 1
Pound the round steak to tenderize on both sides and in both directions. Either use a meat hammer or wrap it in saran wrap and use a saucer.
Step 2
Cut the steak in 2 inch squares and season with salt, pepper and flour.
Step 3
Fry on both sides in fat over medium heat. Then add all chopped ingredients and cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent.
Step 4
Add 1 cup water and cook over medium heat until the meat is tender enough to cut with a fork. Add water as needed. Cooking time is about 1 1/2 to 3 hours. Gravy will be thick. Serve over rice with black eyes peas and a fresh salad. De'lish!
