Steps:
- Pour flour into a mixing bowl and season generously with seasoning salt, salt, and pepper.
- Whisk eggs and milk together in a separate bowl.
- Place steaks on a cutting board between two layers of plastic wrap; beat with a meat tenderizer on both sides for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Discard plastic wrap and sprinkle seasoning salt on top of steaks. Dip steaks in flour mixture until coated on both sides. Dip into egg mixture, then back into flour mixture a second time; steaks should be completely covered in flour on both sides. Sprinkle again with seasoning salt.
- Fill a large skillet halfway with vegetable oil and heat to medium-high. Allow oil to heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Fry steaks in the hot oil for 3 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- While steaks are frying, stir water into gravy mix in 2-quart microwavable bowl. Microwave on high until thickened, stirring every minute, 4 to 6 minutes total.
- Serve hot steaks with gravy.

COUNTRY-STYLE STEAK
Mmmm...mmm... This is the recipe that my momma passed down to me. Born and raised in the South, and my momma was raised on a farm, so my family knows a lot about southern cookin'. With this recipe, don't be shy to add other spices to it. This goes great with mashed potatoes, green beans and sweet tea. You can use the gravy from the steak for the mashed potatoes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix the flour, black pepper, seasoned salt, and garlic powder together in a shallow bowl, and coat the cube steaks thoroughly with the flour mixture, patting the flour onto the steaks to get a good coating. Retain 3 tablespoons of seasoned flour.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and pan-fry the cube steaks until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Place the steaks into a 9x12-inch baking dish. Whisk the retained seasoned flour into the beef broth until smooth, and pour the broth over the steaks. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the meat is tender and the gravy has thickened, about 2 hours.

COUNTRY-FRIED STEAKS
This down-home recipe reminds me of my mother, who was raised in the South. It calls for cube steak instead of round steak, so there's no need to pound the meat. I just dip and coat the beef, then cook it in my cast-iron skillet. -Bonnie Malloy, Norwood, Pennsylvania

Tips:
- To make sure the steak is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also cook the steak until it is no longer pink in the center.
- For a crispier crust on the steak, cook it over medium-high heat.
- If you want a more tender steak, cook it over low heat for a longer period of time.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the steak. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
- Serve the steak immediately with your favorite sides.
