Pioneer Woman is one who rules over people’s hearts with her mesmerizing recipes. One of her famous recipes is “Crock Pot Cube Steak Recipe”. Her recipe is my favorite slow cooker recipe. It’s a dish fully packed with flavors. When cooked on low flame for a long day it allows the meat to take a taste of mushroom and onion soups.
Cube steaks sometimes also called Minute Steak is an inexpensive flavorful cut of beef. It is pre-tenderized. It is taken from the tough portion near the rump of the cow. The name comes from the method of tenderizing steaks in a cubing machine.
