One year, after we'd purchased half a beef from a local cattle raiser, I went on a full-scale search for new and different recipes. This is one I found - my family loved it from the very first bite. I've shared it with friends at work, too (I'm a waitress). They agree it's a nice change from regular Swiss steak. My husband and I have three children - boys 25 and 21, and a girl 17. -Barb Benting, Grand Rapids, Michigan

Absolutely delicious, even better than I had hoped for based on the good reviews. Just make it, you won't be sorry!

Tried this recipe on a whim because I had some steaks that needed to be cooked and I didn't just want plain. My family LOVED them!! Even my super picky young kids. I must say, though, that I took a shortcut and didn't simmer the steaks in the pan for 30 min with the water. Instead after browning them, I put them right in the pan for baking and baked them for 3 hours on 265.
