    Cube steak is the perfect cut for chicken fried steak. The tenderizing process creates tiny pockets that soak up the flavors of the breading and gravy. When fried, the exterior becomes super crunchy while the interior stays juicy and tender. The texture alone will have you coming back for bite after bite. If you can’t find cube steak, you can use a meat mallet or rolling pin to tenderize a top round or sirloin steak, then slice it into thin cutlets.

    I haven't had any CFS in awhile and now I must make this recipe for sure. You never said what oil you used but you mentioned lard and my Grandma used to use bacon grease out of a coffee can every time she fried anything so I need to cook a bunch of bacon or can use store bought lard? That's the same Grandma that taught me the eggshell trick that Todd demonstrated but then I learned that you never crack an egg against an edge. Break it on a flat surface, like the counter top, and it eliminates the possibility of getting a small piece of eggshell breaking off and getting in the dish. I went to work for a Hotel that had a Sunday Brunch and to prep we had to break 2 gross of eggs for the scrambled eggs and omelette station. It was one of the most tedious and time consuming job because the eggs had to be broken 1 at a time into one dish, checked for shells, remove any if found and then mix with the other eggs to be beaten. It was the job the "newbie" was given so it was the first job I was given. Since I knew that I could break the eggs in without ever worrying about shells on the prep board rather than the edge of a bowl I was able to knock them out very quickly. When one of the kitchen mgrs. saw that I wasn't using the 2 bowl method he went nuts and said we had to run all of the eggs I had already done through a sieve and I had to follow policy on what was left. I told him and then showed my method was faster and after me quickly breaking 2 dozen eggs without a single shell and running the first 8 dozen I had already done through a sieve without a single shell found he agreed. In fact it was officially called the "Kenny Method". The added benefit is you never break the yolk so you eliminate having to be careful when poaching or cooking sunny side up or separating, etc. Just trying to give something back for all that you guys give to all of us. Thanks for another great video.

      Just avoid seed oils
      They're not meant for human consumption. Lard is perfect IMO.

    If you get a pack of thin ribeyes, you can pound them some and do everything else just like this video. The ribeye blows every other cut away when it comes to CFS. I promise that you will agree if you try it.

    There's a local restaurant that serves chicken fried steak, and I've never tried anything else on their menu. I'll spend 10 minutes looking at the menu, narrow it down to two or three items, but I always end up getting their chicken fried steak with an egg on top and a side of tater tots.

    With a ribeye it might be greasy. But with the cube steak it looks like it will be assume. Although the grease from your ribeye could go in your rue. Nomatter what your recipe looks great. Thankyou for a great video.

    The store in town had filet marked down to like 5.99 a lbs on in the reduced for quick sale... it had 2 pretty decent size filets in there.. I came home beat them with a mallet to flatten them... then chicken fried them...best cfs EVER.... I think the guy who marked it down made mistake though because they normally don't go more than half off... filets were 16.99 back then
