CROCK POT COOKING TIPS
This is one of those fix-it and forget it type crock pot recipes. It helps to have a digital crock pot these days. You can cook it for a certain amount of time so and then set it to automatically go to a keep-warm setting.
WHAT CAN I SERVE WITH CUBED STEAK?
I gotta served this cubed steak and gravy with my Million Dollar Mashed Potatoes and smother it in the gravy. Or, perhaps you want something a bit lighter? Then maybe my ITALIAN GREEN BEANS, BACON GARLIC GREEN BEANS or MAPLE GLAZED CARROTS. My favorite part of this recipe? The gravy. Oh mercy, the gravy. Me and gravy, it’s a love thing. Be sure to try my CROCK POT PORK CHOPS & GRAVY. It’s all about the gravy, baby!

Misty says
I’m trying this right now using some Venison my husband brought home. I’ve never cooked venison and I really dont want to mess with it either so I figured I’d use these venison cube steaks in this… any input?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hey Misty! I think you should be okay with the venison. Venison can be super dry or tough but I think cooking it in this gravy nice and slow should help it come out tender. 🙂 Let me know how it turns out for you!
Sally says
Good luck, if venison is cured and cooked right you can’t hardly tell it from some beef recipes. Use garlic and bacon grease with it as well.
Jean says
Eating this great comfort food right now! Husband and I love it! Will definitely make again. SO easy and convenient!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Thanks so much for taking the time to review Jean! So glad to hear that!
Jessica O says
This is so delicious! My 3 boys, even the picky eater loved it. I accidentally bought low sodium brown gravy mix the second time I made this and it was still scrumptious!. Thank you. It is so easy too. Thank you
Ryan says
Very good overall. Tad salty but very flavorful.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Thanks so much Ryan!
ryvir says
Followed recipe except cooked in the instapot for 30 minutes and natural release. The gravy was already pretty thick so I just added the cornstarch and water and let it sit for about 5-6 minutes with no simmer. Very tasty. Thank you.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Thanks so much Ryvir! Love that you enjoyed making it in the Instant Pot!
Mary Ann Black says
my husband hates onions – is there something I can substitute for the onion soup?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Well, you’ll lose the depth of flavor but you could use a beef consommé (in the can.) 🙂
Mary E Collins says
I’m going to add some sliced mushrooms to this, and cook this tomorrow for our dinner.
Husband says yummy!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
You can never go wrong with adding mushrooms! Hope you love it!!
Crystal says
Can I use flour instead of corn starch to thicken it?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Crystal, flour can get kind of lumpy where as corn starch keeps nice and smooth. Also, you’d need more flour to get it to thicken and it may end up with a flour taste.
Deborah Burnette says
Delicious & super easy to make!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Thanks so much Deborah!!
Cindy says
Can you double this recipe? Want to make for company.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Cindy – you sure can! Just make sure your slow cooker is big enough to allow room for proper cooking. They shrink quite a bit as they cook but you don’t want them (for example) all piled on in a round 4-quart crock pot. 🙂
Chelsea says
Instead of cream of chicken soup could you use cream of mushroom?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Absolutely!
Sue says
I have celiac. What would be a gluten free alternative.
Tanesha says
If i cook for 4 hours should i sear meat off first? Or is there a shorter time version to this recipe.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Tanesha, you could definitely sear the meat first. However, if you cook cubed steak too fast, it’ll come out tough. I definitely recommend the slower cooking method so it comes out tender.
Lindsey says
This is one of my husband’s favorite meals that I make in the crock-pot now. We had it just two weeks ago and it is in the crock-pot once again for tonight.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Love hearing that Lindsey! Yay!! Thank you for coming back to comment!
Tiffany says
Made this with cube steak. Didnt have au jus gravy and walmart was out, so I bought onion gravy. Was not disappointed! Very delicious
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Love it! Thanks so much for coming back to comment Tiffany!
Barb says
Will the meat brown in the crockpot or should I do a quick brown on the stovetop? If it was pink at all my family will not eat it. Is it pink at all not browning first?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Barb – this is totally up to you. You can certainly brown the chops first. Just be sure not to overcook them while browning so they don’t come out tough after they’re done in the crock pot. 🙂
Barb says
*Update….did a quick brown on each side and proceeded w the recipe as described. They turned out FABULOUS! Thank you!!!!!
Christina says
I’m in the process of making the cube steak!! This is my 3rd time making it, and let me tell you, it is AWESOME!! My youngest son(he’s 11) is SO picky on what he eats, he loves this!! With the gravy part I add cream of mushrooms, and beef broth instead of water. And is use rice with it. But no matter what it is so good!!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Yay – thank you Christina!! I absolutely love hearing when someone loves a recipe. I love your twist to it too!!
