Description

This delicious slow cooker cube steak recipe is perfect for a hearty meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 ½ to 2 pounds cube steak
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 stalks celery (chopped)
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 3 carrots (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 cans stewed tomatoes with juice (14 ounces each)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (or to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 packet brown gravy

Instructions

  1. Add the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika to a shallow dish and whisk to combine.
  2. Lightly dredge the steaks in the flour and set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil.
  4. Add the steaks to the oil in the pan and quickly brown on each side. We’re just looking for a bit of color, not to cook through.
  5. Add the steaks to the slow cooker.
  6. Add the carrots, celery, and onion on top of the steaks.
  7. Next, whisk together the garlic, brown sugar, tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, and brown gravy mix in a small bowl.
  8. Pour the liquid mixture into the slow cooker.
  9. Cover and cook on low 6-8 or high 4-6 until the meat and veggies are tender.

Notes

  • For a thicker gravy, use less liquid.
  • Experiment with additional vegetables like bell peppers or potatoes.
