What is cube steak?

It’s a type of sirloin steak that has is tenderized by pounding it thin – that part is already done for you! You can tell it’s cube steak because it looks like it’s been flattened with a meat mallet.

Cube steak is less expensive than other cuts which makes a great budget-friendly meat. Cooking it in the slow cooker is great because it gets really tender!

What I love about this recipe is that you can cook the steak AND the gravy at the same time in the crock pot. When it’s ready, you’ll have tender beef and a rich gravy for a delicious dinner.

Crockpot Cube Steak Ingredients

• Cube steaks – You’ll need about a pound and a half for this recipe.
• Sliced onion – White onion or yellow onion are great.
• Cream of mushroom soup – This is the main part of the gravy. You can also use cream of chicken soup.
• Beefy onion dry soup mix – This adds tons of savory flavor! You can buy it by the packet in the soup aisle at the grocery store.
• Sliced butter – This adds richness to the gravy.
• Chopped parsley – This is for garnish, but is optional.

Optional add-in: If you love mushrooms, add some sliced fresh mushrooms or canned mushrooms.

Flavor booster: If you want to amp up the flavor, lightly coat the steak in flour and brown the pieces on the stove in a pan first. Cook them long enough to get a nice crust and then place them in the slow cooker.

How to Make Cube Steak in a Crockpot

Mix: Whisk the canned soup and soup packet in a bowl.

Assemble: Spread some of the soup mixture in the crock pot. Sprinkle half of the sliced onions over the top. Place the steaks on top of the onions followed by the rest of the soup mixture and the rest of the onions. Place the sliced butter on top.

Cook: Set the slow cooker to cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours. Once the meat is tender, it’s ready! Sprinkle the parsley over the top for garnish.

Storage and Reheating Tips

If you have leftovers place them in the a shallow, airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

Leftovers can also be frozen for up to 3 months in a freezer container.

To reheat leftovers, thaw if it is frozen overnight in the refrigerator. We recommend reheating it in the oven in an oven safe dish, covered for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees or until heated through.

You can also warm it on the stove top in a skillet, covered on low heat until heated through.

Leftovers can be reheated in the microwave in a microwave safe dish but this can dry it out a bit!
