We bought a quarter last fall. The hamburger is long gone. I learned how to cook short ribs, we got extra packages of them as it seems nobody else wanted them. They are delicious. I'm bored with the roasts and don't know much about round steak. I need some new recipes please.

Here is a recipe that I use as a base for Round Steak Stroganoff in a crock pot


Ingredients:

2-3 lb. beef round steak, cut into 1 inch thick slices
1/2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
2 med. onions, thinly sliced and separated into rings
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces fresh sliced mushrooms (or substitute 8 oz of canned)
1 (10 1/2 oz.) can condensed beef broth ( I use 12 oz of prepared Better Than Bouillon Beef broth)
1/4 cup dry white wine, optional ( I usually use red wine as that is what I have on hand)
1-2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 c. sour cream
1/4 c. flour

Preparation:

Trim all excess fat from steak and cut into-3 inch strips about 1/2-inch wide. Combine 1/2 cup flour, the salt, pepper and dry mustard; toss with steak strips to coat thoroughly. Place coated steak strips in Crock Pot; stir in onion rings and mushrooms.
Add beef broth and wine; stir well. Cover and cook on low setting for 8-10 hours. Before serving, combine sour cream with 1/4 cup flour; stir into slow cooker and let thicken. Serve stroganoff with egg noodles.

(If you have time... I like to start everything off in a skillet. Brown the meat, remove to crock pot, brown onions mushrooms and garlic, remove once softened to crock pot, deglazed the pan with the red wine and beef broth, and pour into crock pot. I think these added steps make for a deeper flavor and help to jump start the temp in the crock pot.)

(I have skipped the dry mustard used in browning the beef and put in a tablespoon of dijon with the beef broth instead. I have also used cream cheese as a substitute for the sour cream.)

You can slice it in thin strips and stir-fry it with onions and bell pepper strips with black bean garlic sauce and sambal olek.

Or stir-fry with broccoli and oyster sauce.

Thanks for the recipes. I just had my new favorite round steak recipe.
Round steak Stroganaff! Thanks Luft.

Next time I'll try boonie's asian twists. I do have to google black bean garlic sauce and sambal olek though....
Oyster sauce I know.

sambal oelek = ground chili paste.

Always have a jar in the refrigerator and an unopened one in the pantry.

We also sometimes cook round steak with onions, green beans, and tomatoes. Add some bay leaf, salt, pepper, a little Worcestershire sauce.
