Ratcliff pop: 16 (according to the post office lady), TX

We wanted something simple, yet, satisfying. So, I made Pork Steaks with Waffle Fries. For years, I'd been telling my wife, Dawn, that I could cook as good as she could, but, I'm not sure she really believed me. I think these pork steaks convinced her. They came out so tender & juicy, they almost fell apart as I was taking them out of the skillet. There's no need for a knife with these. Spoon a little of the gravy over them & there you have it. A meal fit for a king. Or, for a wife who doesn't feel like cooking, &, wants something simple, yet, satisfying.

Ingredients For tender pork steaks

  • 2 6-8 oz
    pork steaks or pork chops
  • 2 Tbsp
    bacon grease
  • all purpose flour
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • water, as needed

How To Make tender pork steaks

  • 1
    Put 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in a 10 inch cast iron skillet & get it hot.
  • 2
    Brown the pork steaks on both sides & place in a paper towel lined pie pan until ready for step 4.
  • 3
    Mix enough flour, a little salt, & black pepper together to coat the pork steaks all over. Place them back in the skillet.
  • 4
    Add cold water to just below the top edge of the meat. "NOT" over the meat.
  • 5
    Bring water to a boil, turn down to a medium high simmer. Cover & cook for 20 minutes.
  • 6
    About halfway through the cooking, turn the meat over & let it finish cooking until most of the water has made a gravy.
  • 7
    CAREFULLY, place the meat on the plates. You may have to use a spatula. The meat may fall apart if you try using a fork to pick it up.
  • 8
    Spoon a little gravy over it & enjoy a meal fit for any queen of the house. Kings like it, too.
