There are a lot of things confusing:saltines & the bread crumbs are mentioned, which was used; buttermilk is only mentioned in the ingredients, but milk is mentioned 3 x's, did you use buttermilk; beef cube steaks are to be 4lbs. each - WOW! Please clarify. Thanks

No, but crushed saltines are and they can be substituted for bread crumbs. It's the spirit of the recipe you have to read.

Hi Ashley,

As I read the recipe, the buttermilk would be used in the dredging process.

The "other" milk, at the bottom of the recipe, would be any milk to thin out the mushroom soup for the gravy.

Do you use the buttermilk for dredging or in the gravy? The directions are not clear which milk to use where.

I was glad to see this recipe. I will try it as I usually just roll in flour and fry. However, I do not like mushrooms so will use another gravy recipe.
