Chicken Fried Steak

Ok so I am releasing my chicken fried steak routine and recipe. This is an art making this and sometimes requires several times making it until you can get it down.

You will need:

Meat- deer, elk or bear and of course beef cubed.
eggs
flour
seasonings
oil

Depending on how much meat and if you want to do the double dip method you have you may need 4 to 8 eggs. So place in a large bowl and scramble those eggs up pretty good.

Get out another large bowl and dump some flour in it. Probably about 4 cups.

Now the seasoning gets kind of tricky. I dump a bunch of the following seasoning in the bowl:

Johnny's Seasoned Salt
Some sort of steak seasoning
Garlic salt
Pepper
McCormick's Steak rub
and almost any seasoning you want sometimes I also use Adobo Seasoning.
Dont be afraid to use quite a bit of all of the seasonings.
Mix up in the flour with a metal hand mixer like you'd use for gravy. That works great.

Now place your steak in the egg and coat both sides.
Then place in the flour and coat both sides.
 If you want to do the double dip method you will repeat this process over.
Place on a wire rack over a cookie sheet or place on some sort of slick plate.

If you are doing the double dip method you will want to place on a rack and put on the cookie sheet and put in the fridge for a hour.

Heat up a generous amount of oil in a large deep pan.

Place steak in the oil and cook each side until brown. Not too brown because you dont want to over cook the meat. Especially deer or elk.

Make sure your oven is on warm and you place a cookie sheet in there with paper towels down on top.

After you cook each piece place on paper towel in oven. Keep oven on warm so you dont over cook.

While cooking in between sets you will want to wait a minute or so for the oil to heat back up. You will probably want to add more oil at some point in the process and heat it back up.

This is a process that will take a bit too get down. Just DONT over cook your meat. I also advise only dipping once your first time and not doing the double method. Get the basics down first.

We dont make gravy from anything in this process. We just bust out the gravy packets from the store and use them. The dark kind. Not the kind you use for biscuits and gravy. But if you fancy that then by all means go right ahead.

Any questions feel free to email me !!!
