Grits And Gravy
From saltymike 16 years agoIngredients
- 1 cup course ground yellow harina (I like No. 16 grind) shopping list
- 4 cups water shopping list
- 1 tsp salt shopping list
- ¼-½ tsp ground black pepper shopping list
- 3 lbs beef cubed steak shopping list
- 1 cup vegetable oil shopping list
- 2 Tbsp butter (lightly salted is OK) shopping list
- 1 cup + 2 Tbsp flour shopping list
- 3 cups milk shopping list
- salt and ground black pepper to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Place water, harina, 1tsp salt and ¼ - ½ tsp ground black pepper in a large, heavy sauce pan and bring to a rapid boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer until grits are thickened, stir frequently.
- Place 1 cup of vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet and bring to temperature over medium heat. (Test for sizzle before beginning cooking.)
- Mix 1 cup flour, lots of salt and LOTS of ground black pepper in a bowl.
- Cut cube steak into pieces approx. 4 inches square. Roll steak pieces in seasoned flour.
- Pan fry floured steak pieces until done through. Place each piece on paper towels to drain.
- When all pieces of steak have been cooked, add 2 Tbsp butter to skillet. Whisk with fork to loosen all cracklin’ pieces in the pan.
- Add 2 Tbsp flour to the hot butter, oil and cracklin’ mixture. Stir to make a medium brown roué.
- Gradually add milk to pan and whisk constantly to make a thick gravy. If too thick, add small amounts of water or milk to obtain desired consistency. Re-season as necessary.
- Add steak back into pan with gravy so that each piece of steak if thoroughly coated with gravy.
- Serve steak and gravy over grits. You will need biscuits for sopping the gravy.
