This was very good and my whole family loved them! I added corn starch to the flour mixture and then let the steak sit for a few minutes before frying them. This helped the flour and seasoning stick to the meat while frying. A trick I learned watching TFN channel! Will definately have these again!

My family loved this recipe. It was very simple and quick to make and a fun finger food to eat especially for the kids. I deep fried these in my mini Daisy Deep Fryer (approx. 3 min. per batch) and they came out great. The prep time and the cooking time in the original recipe is overstated. I had these done from start to finish in less than 30 minutes so don't let the time needed to make this recipe scare you. I didn't change the seasonings recommended they were fine. Be sure to cut the meat into 1x1 inch pieces no larger because you want it to be like popcorn steak bites. Overall this is a great recipe!
awesome and different. Erie PA
I wasn't impressed. It definatly needs something to give it more flavor. When i dropped it into the oil all the flour and spices came right off.
I thought that this was a good base for a recipe... I found that with any red meat that more egg=better hold on the spices and flour i also marinated the steak with a montreal steak rub for an hour before breading and frying... it did say feel free to "play" with the seasonings... over all a good recipe that i will try again and again till perfected...
This was pretty good but just a bit too time consuming for me. I will just continue to make chicken fried steak out of the cube steak although a nice 'twist' for cube steak.
I really liked the spicy flavor of this! It wasn't too overpowering but had just the right kick. I used left over steaks from our BBQ last night and I used buttermilk instead of milk and egg because I found I did not have any egg. Thanks for the post! PS Also used a seasoned fry flour in place of the reg. flour.
Ah yes another iteration of Finger Steaks as originated at Mylo's Torch Cafe in Boise back in the '50s. Use any cut of red meat you like I've had them with a LOT of different meats including fresh Bear and Cougar steak. As finger food for a game this makes just about enough for two guys. As a meal for maybe 4 servings you need about three lb of twice fried French fries on a platter with the meat mounded on top. I LOVE these. I usually let mine rest in the refrigerator for about an hour after breading and before frying. Season with whatever you like.
These were very easy! I added taco seasoning instead of mesquite. Also omitted the cayanne pepper. Next time will try with ranch seasoning.
