Steak Fingers with Country Gravy

 
  
        This is the epitome of comfort food.  So delicious.  Ron and Bub work hard on our homestead.  They spend their days tending to our animals and taking care of the land's upkeep.  They build fences; they haul hay; and they repair pens.   Needless to say, they work hard day in and day out.  When they come in for a meal, they are HUNGRY!  They want good ole country food.  Comforting food.  They want meat, taters, and gravy and this meal is right up their alley.

    In a shallow pan (I often use pie plates) stir together the flour, seasoning salt, and pepper.  In another shallow pan stir together the milk and whipped eggs.  Take a few strips of the meat and dredge each one through the flour mixture.  Be sure both sides of the meat are covered.  Then dip them into the egg mixture and then back into the flour mixture.  Do all the meat this way.

      Fill the bottom of a skillet until there is about 1/2" of oil in the bottom of it.  Turn the heat onto medium-high.  Once the oil is hot, carefully place a few pieces of meat into the hot oil.

       Fry them until they are brown on one side and then turn them over and fry them until they are done.  Remove them and place them on a a paper towel lined plate.  Keep frying them this way until they are all done.
 





      To make the gravy, pour off the oil that is in the skillet and place it into another dish.  Now measure up 1/4 cup of this oil and place it back into the skillet.  Turn the heat onto medium-low.  Sprinkle in a few tablespoons of flour.  I just use the flour I dredged the meat through.  Whisk the flour into the oil until it becomes a smooth paste.  If it is too greasy, just add in more flour.  Once it is a paste, allow it to brown just a wee bit.  Now pour in the milk.  Whisk the gravy and cook it for 2-3 minutes or until it starts to thicken.  

    Serve and enjoy.  Serve the steak fingers with the gravy and with french fries or mashed potatoes. Also good with some homemade biscuits.
