Before my husband and I met, he had never had a country fried steak either. He had memories of his mom eating them, but he wasn’t someone to dive into something like that. He was a steak and shrimp or chicken and mashed potatoes man. I made these for us one night and he was instantly hooked. I get a request to make them still to this day at least once every other week. If I find a round or cubed steak on sale, you can bet these puppies are getting fried up for sure!
