Easy Cube Steak Recipe

This delicious recipe is easy to make and packed with flavor. Cube steak is a type of beef cut known for being a tender, tough cut of meat. Usually it is either top round or top sirloin when purchased. It is then flattened by pounding and softened before cooking. The cube steak gets its name from the indentations that are on the cube steak after it has been tenderized with a meat tenderizer.

To get this meat as tender and juicy as possible, you’ll want to make sure you take the time to tenderize your meat about 20-30 minutes before you start cooking. Once you see how delicious it is and drizzle with delicious mushroom sauce, you won’t be able to resist a few seconds!
