cube steaks
Mechanically softened cuts
Cube steaks are thin cuts of beef that have been mechanically tenderized, leaving a distinctive pattern of small indentations on the surface.
The tenderizing process breaks down tough connective tissue, making inexpensive cuts suitable for quick cooking.
Cube steaks are typically pan-fried or chicken-fried: chicken-fried steak with cream gravy.
