SMOTHERED ROUND STEAK WITH GRAVY
This is one of the first recipes I learned to cook when I was a teenager. Mom taught me to cook over the phone, after I got home from school every day. She was working and I didn't think about it at the time, but later I realized my calls were reassuring to her, since she knew I was safely home. Even when Mom told me how to do it, I nearly always tweaked it! Most of the time, it turned out okay. Mashed potatoes and biscuits are perfect with this, along with a vegetable.

Steps:
- Sprinkle each side of the round steak pieces with salt and pepper, rubbing seasoning into the meat.
- Combine 1/2 cup flour and garlic powder in a 1-gallon resealable bag. Add steak pieces, seal bag, and shake to evenly coat all the pieces.
- Heat 1/3 cup of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add seasoned and floured steak pieces to the skillet in a single layer in batches and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with remaining pieces, adding more oil, if necessary, until all are browned.
- Add onion slices to the same skillet and stir, coating onions with pan drippings, until onion slices have separated and are just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Move onions to one side of the skillet and return browned steak pieces to the skillet. Spread steak evenly in the skillet and place onions on top.
- Stir together water, beef base, and Worcestershire sauce in a microwave-safe container. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and pour into the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the steak is tender, about 45 minutes.
- Remove the steak from the skillet and add reserved 1/2 cup of flour to the pan drippings. Increase heat to medium; stir briskly and cook until bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in milk and keep stirring until gravy bubbles again. Return steak, onions, and any accumulated juices to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors are well combined, about 10 minutes.

SMOTHERED CHUCK STEAK ELECTRIC SKILLET STYLE

Steps:
- 1. Heat electric skillet to medium and drizzle in some olive oil. Placed seasoned steaks in and brown on both sides. Turn temp down to "Warm" where the light goes on and off every minute or two. Now cover with water and add chopped celery and onion. This is the secret to this melt in your mouth, incredibly flavorful steak. If your temp is too high and the heat light stays on your electric skillet constantly you will have to turn the meat and add water every few minutes to keep it from burning.
- 2. With temp on the Warm setting, seasoned meat covered in water and chopped onion and celery added, cover with lid and allow to simmer for about 20-30 min. Keep an eye on it until you know how often you need to add more water. Each time you add more water turn the meat over. About half way through add about 1 tsp of beef bouillon powder. This will just enrich your broth (gravy).
- 3. Allow to simmer 2- 2 1/2 hours or until steak is fork tender. Make sure you have plenty of water (broth) in pan when you remove steaks.
- 4. GRAVY-remove steak, mix together in a small bowl about 1 c milk and 1 tbsp. cornstarch. Mix together well till no lumps then add to broth ( I had about 3-4 cups of broth). If you have less broth use less milk and cornstarch. Add cornstarch mix to broth and stir while on low heat until thickened. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
