COUNTRY FRIED STEAK AND MILK GRAVY

Steps:

• Season meat with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper; set aside.
• In a shallow dish, mix flour with 1 teaspoon of the pepper. Dredge each steak in flour. Dip in beaten egg, then dredge in flour again.
• Heat lard in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry steaks 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat.
• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the dredging flour into oil. Cook over medium heat for 1 minute, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of skillet. Gradually whisk in milk. Cook, stirring frequently, 3 to 4 minutes, or until thickened and bubbly. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoons pepper; gravy should be quite peppery.

COUNTRY FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• Whisk together the egg and milk in a shallow bowl; set aside.
• Whisk together the flour, crushed saltines, seasoned salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and steak seasoning. Dip the steaks in the egg mixture, then press each steak in the flour mixture. Pat the flour mixture into the steaks to coat them completely.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and fry the steaks until they are golden brown, firm, hot in the center, and just turning from pink to grey, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

COUNTRY FRIED ELK/DEER (WILD GAME) STEAK

Steps:

• First, Thaw your steaks. Then use a meat tenderizer to hammer the steaks on both sides. If you don't have a tenderizer you can use a knife and hit the steak in a parallel hatching pattern, then cross hatch them, on both sides. (BE CAREFUL!) Set aside.
• Second, set out your 3 medium bowls. In the first one put 1 cup flour, and 3 tsp of lemon pepper and mix. The second bowl is your beaten eggs. The third bowl will be 1 cup of breadcrumbs mixed with your barbecue seasoning/season salt.
• Next, put a large skillet on the stove. Melt your 2 to 3 TBSP of vegetable Shortening on medium low.
• (You will want to start with your thickest Steak and end with your thinnest.) Take a steak with your fingers (if you don't mind globby fingers) or a set of tongs, and dredge it in the flour mixture on all sides. Then dredge it in the egg mixture (all sides) followed by the breadcrumb mixture. Carefully place in the skillet. Repeat this process until all steaks are in the skillet.
• Cook for approximately 6 minutes on each side. Check the center of your thickest steak with a knife before removing them from the heat. It should be just slightly pink or medium well done. (Its not a good idea to under or overcook wild game) Place the steak on a paper towel covered serving platter (to absorb the excess oil).
• Serve hot and enjoy!
