Sounds delicious!


It is. And the white pepper gravy really makes it. And don't be afraid to put the pepper gravy on the biscuits. It doesn't hurt to cut up some breakfast sausage and add to the white pepper gravy. In a serving of grits on the side is good too.

My father was visiting me and I took him out for chicken fried steak and he loved it, and when he got back to NY he got a dinner to put it on the menu and no one would order it so sad! because its so goooood


It wasn't your dad's fault that it didn't work. The New Yorkers don't know what's good for them. They like hot dogs on the street corner. I hate hot dogs. There's nothing like the first and last part of an animal stuffed in a tube. Lips and bung bungs. They are what they eat. If they had tried your dad's chicken fried steak their eyes would have opened and things would never be the same again.

I used to get a large sirloin steak and flour with salt and pepper both sides and fry both sides. With mashed potatoes and steak grave and green peas as a vegetable and you have some fine eaten. I don't like the chicken fried steak for some reason I really like the sirloin that way though.


We made chicken fried ribeyes one time, and they were amazing!

That's a good start to a satisfying meal It should come with three sides...mashed taters, turnip greens and corn will do. Sweet southern iced tea and a few dinner rolls will complete the first serving...seconds are a given. Throw in the salad bar, of course.

BTW, what's available for dessert

Back in the days when I was a young man my Mom would buy 500 or so baby fryer chicks for us to eat as well as sell as money was tight back then !

These fryers were the size to butcher at the time when we were farming full bore and the four of us would eat 3 chickens a day chicken and a ½ for dinner and a chicken and a ½ for supper !

Mind you these were raise open range and the drumsticks were huge and some of the best fried chicken one could get !

This was in the time that we had tractors that had no power steering or hyd to lift our implements so we were getting a good work out every working day and we had an enormous appetite !

You may have a point there. I lived on the "Florabama" border where a lot of folks could not afford 'steak' We would thinly slice chicken breast and prepare it as the recipe for 'beef' It cooked great especially if you did not have real 'choppers', hence the "chicken fried steak" and like the chickens said "you learn as you burn"

When I started cooking the sirloins like chicken fried steak you could still get them with the bone in. Now you can't get sirloin with the bone in at least not in this part of the country. But I do prefer a real steak that is floured on both sides and then fried especially in the winter when it is cold outside. Grilling in minus temperatures is something I really don't enjoy. I suppose one could use a good T-bone or Porterhouse steak for the chicken fried steak as well. New york strip and ribeyes as you mention will work as well.

When my kids were small, we lived out in an area that was thick with rattlesnakes, so I went to ranching chickens. We had a ton of laying hens, and four hens who would set on a golf ball just to have something to set on. We had chickens running around everywhere, all free range. Every so often, we would butcher a bunch for population control, and food. You're right, those free runners had some nice legs! They also had pretty decent breasts from flying up as high as they could get to roost where the coyotes couldn't get em. We also had ducks, geese, and guineas. Those guineas were weird, and obnoxious. Their eggs were good though.

The best and most memorable chicken-fried steak I ever had was at the old Goodson's Cafe in Hufsmith, Texas back in the 50s & 60s. Hufsmith was/is just outside of Tomball, Texas. I can assure you Mrs. Goodson's C-F steak was as large as the one shown from Noble, Oklahoma. It came with large bowls of fries, gravy, salad and rolls. My brothers and I always ate there as we got the best bang for our buck. Good times, indeed!

Goodson's still exists in Tomball, but with a different location. Mrs.Goodson, having passed decades ago, is no longer cooking them herself. I understand, but don't know, that the current Goodson's Cafe is excellent, also...maybe her family is running it. You could'a put her old cafe in an average motor home of today. Tomball is a suburb north/northwest of Houston.
