Chicken fried steak is a Texas tradition! The mention above of "schnitzel" is significant as there were many early settlers in Texas from Germany and Alsace-Lorraine and the frying of meats was part of their culture.

Royal27, you are one lucky guy! CFS is awesome! I grew up in Texas eating it at every place I could try out.

Just took some Elk steaks out of the freezer for dinner for tomorrow! Is that a hand held meat pounder? Looks amazing!

It is!
My uncle found one just like that in a New Mexico antique store and I liked it so much that I scoured the internet for one a couple of years ago. His still has wood between the teeth which both adds weight and keeps the meat from going up to far.
Mine still works great though and for small quantities at a time is awesome. Would hate to do an entire elk ham at once though.

Didn't realize you were painting your nails these days.
Price for your breakfast at DSC keeps going up.

I use ground up crackers for my coating. Been a fav since I was a kid. Never forget when my boy and I were in RSA for his first hunt. They made gemsbuck schnitzel one night and my boy ate his portion, and theirs! Couldn't get enough of it.
Couldn't get enough of it.

My wife made chicken fried steak for dinner tonight. Fantastic!
She puts cayenne pepper in the dredge for a little kick.

This is my favorite American meal of all time . My favorite place is a really traditional diner in Texas , named “ Sodolak’s Country Inn “ . I make it a point to always dine there , when ever I am in America : Chicken fried steak , chipotle cream gravy , butter milk biscuits , mashed potatoes , collard greens ... And a nice blue berry waffles for dessert .

Any good Texan can make a proper chicken fried..... if looking for some good old fashioned schnitzel... hit me up. I have some close friends here in NTX, that come from the old country of Germany...20 some odd generations of making it old school. Kubys & Elke’s Market Cafe. Tell them I sent you!

I actually haven't , but I've driven by and am familiar with it. The chicken fried bacon had quite the reputation as well.

Dang I shouldn't be reading this before breakfast. A nice impala or Springbok backstrap done the same way would be excellent.

My dear friend Ponton and any Texican reader. You always see on tv shows people talking about collard greens could someone please explain to this Aussie what the Sam Hill they are. I know it ain't spinach attached to your shirt collar but that's it.

Kickin' Collard Greens
These Southern collard greens are cooked in chicken broth and kickin' thanks to flavorful additions like bacon, onions, and red pepper flakes.

Once they're cooked, they look like spinach, but they have their own flavor. Cooked spinach, cabbage, collards are all similar with different flavors and depending on spices.
