Crock Pot Cube Steak with Gravy is one of my favorite comfort foods. I love cube steak but all that work involved when you are making country fried steak is way too much trouble and time I don't have.
This crock pot recipe for cubed steak is so easy to make and you can fix it and forget it, unlike the cubed steak recipes that require you to dip and dredge the cube steak in flour and egg.
Cube steak cooks up fall apart tender when it is cooked in a slow cooker and the easy gravy is great poured over mashed potatoes.

Does the beef broth have to be hot when you add the corn starch to the 1/2 cup
Arlene Mobley
Donna no it doesn't but you will need to bring it back up to a boil for it to thicken.

Donna, I would suggest mixing the cornstarch & 1/2 cup of broth (at room Temp. NOT WITH HOT BROTH).The Corn starch Will mix better with cool Broth (Whisk together well until combined).This will result in liitle or no lumps.Add slurry (Cornstarch & 1/2 C broth) to pot & continue cooking as directed in recipe
Mary
It is a cheap piece of meat but why is it so expensive
Arlene Mobley
Mary I feel your pain. The price of meat is regional. I was just talking to my brother who lives in upstate New York comparing the prices of meat. Down here in Florida where I live meat is so much more expensive than it is where he lives and the buy one get one or two free sales he sees are way better deals than I ever see.

Hi, Arlene!
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I just have a concern about the salt content. Between seasoning the cube steak with salt, and then adding 2 soup mix packets (salt) to beef broth (even more salt), would the finished product be overly salty? Please advise.
Thanks,
Andrea

Hi Andrea
The recipe isn't overly salty tasting. You can skip the seasoning with salt if you need to. You could also use low sodium broth. If for dietary reasons you could also leave out the onion soup mix and use a small diced onion in place.
Andrea
Thank you for replying to me, Arlene. I'll do as you suggested. My husband is very sensitive to the amount of salt I use in my cooking, and even some for seasoning the meat prior to introducing it to the pot of other goodies (that may contain salt) he can detect and it ruins the meal for him. I will definitely try the recipe and omit the onion soup mix for sauteed onions, and use the lowest sodium beef broth I can find.
