Ingredients
4 cube steaks
1 onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 oz sliced mushrooms
1 1/2 cups beef broth
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh rosemary or thyme (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Sear the cube steaks in a skillet with a bit of oil until browned on both sides.
2. Place sliced onions, garlic, and mushrooms in the bottom of the crockpot.
3. Add the browned cube steaks on top of the vegetables.
4. In a bowl, whisk together beef broth, cream of mushroom soup, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over the steak and vegetables.
5. Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or until the steak is fork-tender.
6. Mix cornstarch with water to make a slurry. Stir into the crockpot 20 minutes before serving to thicken the gravy.
7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
Browning the steak adds deep flavor—don’t skip this step if you have time.
Use low-sodium beef broth to better control salt levels.
Add extra mushrooms or onions if you like your gravy loaded.
