Cris here. Confession time… for as LONG as I can remember, Mikey has always hated cubed steak. So, of course, I had to set out to fix that ;). And, sure enough… we finally came up with just the right recipe and he loved it so much he made a video about it!
So what is different? Well we just adapted a beloved tried and true recipe and made it with cubed steak! This recipe makes the BEST Homestyle Chicken and Pork Chops… so, I thought why not try cubed steak?! It turned out beautifully! AND, Mikey actually enjoyed cubed steak!
Crock Pot Cubed Steak with Gravy Recipe Notes
- Since there is a browning step, we like using our browning slow cookers (like this one) to brown our steak in the slow cooker before slow cooking but you can use any 6 quart slow cooker and just do the browning step in a skillet if you’d like.
- I used a large gallon sized baggie to coat all of my cubed steak. Just pour all of your coating ingredients in and smoosh (technical term 😉 ) things around until everything is coated.
- After coating there will be a little extra flour in the the bag. Save the extra flour mixture as you will need it for your sauce.

This sounds great, I definitely will be trying this soon.
Let us know how it goes Noreen! Enjoy!
I have made Country Style Steak in the Crockpot for years. I do pretty much what you do but instead of beef broth I use the brown gravy packets and water. I have never tried the dry mustard but will next time. Crockpot is the only way for fork tender steak.
Darlene-
That sounds delicious! We will have to give it a try!
This looks sooo good. I am one of those who LOVES cubed steak!
I might even try this recipe using (don’t yuck) calf liver. If I do, I think I will cook some onions in butter before browning the meat then add it all in.
Love my Ninja. They are great.
msSally-
Onions would be a great addition! Enjoy!
Ninja’s rock. I just made General Tsos chicken in mine in about 15 minutes. On another note, after seeing the video just now and making some silly comments, I realized I use your vlog and blog to cook dinner or get ideas or just get a smile from your husband’s quirkiness more than any other blog and vlog. Keep it up. You guys are awesome and so are the recipes.
This is such a basic and simple recipe (and no insult at all intended since these types are the best) that can be used with any protein! I love it.
Hi Claudia-
We totally love us some basic and simple recipes 😉 And we are so glad that you enjoy the show!
Is there any way I could cook this on low for longer time? I would love to be able to do that, cuz of work issues.
Yall seem like a very happy couple and your recipe seems easy to make. Ones hint though. 18 min. For a video is a bit excessive. I just sped through it and watched the motions in fast fwd mode. Love that yall are so sweet on each other but please try to keep in mind that most people just want to get to the point.
Hi Crystal-
We totally realize that our style of video is not everyone’s cup of tea, that is why we put all the information to make the recipe in the blog post so no one is forced to watch the video to get the recipe. We are also doing some short form videos, however this post just happens to be on one of the long form days– a form a video that many of our readers enjoy. In the future, feel free to skip these if you personally don’t enjoy them and know that you aren’t missing out on any vital recipe information. Enjoy!
I totally love our crock pot but we don’t use it enough. Its down our cellar because there isn’t enough room to store it in our kitchen, so I have to carry it up the stairs. When I saw this recipe, I knew I had to make it. The problem is there is only 2 of us now as my dad just died 3 weeks ago. He was on a feeding tube anyway so he couldn’t have eaten any of this. I watched the video to see how much the cube steaks equaled since we were going to a store in our town that’s been in business since the 60’s which is when I remember first going and we wanted to half the cube steaks in the recipe. They don’t sell meat in prepackaged, so we needed to know how many to get. I loved the video! Your hubby is a riot and you’re not so bad yourself. I bought 1lb. instead of 2 but made the rest the same for supper tomorrow night. The smell in the kitchen was amazing! We broke off a piece of the cube steak to taste it when it was done and oh my gosh, it was amazing! Just in case there isn’t enough gravy for us we might make more but this recipe is a keeper! Love your blog, love your recipes and loved your video. Your husband reminds me of Larry The Cable Guy, which is why I think I love him. Thanks for a really great recipe!
We ate it last night. As I was dishing it out, and I could smell it as it was warming up, I was drooling. I made more gravy and we also put it on the mashed ‘taters. When mine was in my plate, I needed a napkin for all the drool! Oh my gosh, it tasted so good! We had peas with it and I have to say this recipe is a keeper. I told a friend of mine that I made this recipe and she told me to send it to her because she never makes cube steaks that are moist and juicy. I told her she would love this recipe. My sister is going to eat some tomorrow night. I know she will love it.
Hi Gail- So glad you enjoyed it (and the video)!
Hi I have always loved all of your recipes, but I have just recently found of a new world of cooking using an Instant Pot. I wish you could convert your recipes to do both kinds of cookings.
I love this recipe in the crockpot and I’m sure I will love this one too. Is there anywhere that I can get nutritional information on your recipes? My husband suddenly has to go on a low-sodium diet and we are truly scrambling. Thank you
so sorry – this is supposed to be for Mississippi Roast in the electric pressure cooker.
Hi there – I made this yesterday. OMG – was it ever good and sooooooooooo tender. I only made one change – I am highly allergic to MSG – so I used Better than Bouillon Beef Base and of course served it over red mashed potatoes. I also cut the steak portion down to 2 – 3 pieces cause there is only me and this will make a great left-over for another meal. Thanks again for a terrific recipe.
Chris I love cube steaks, will be giving this recipe a try very soon!
