Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Cut the meat with the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices and season on both sides with the salt and pepper. Place the flour into a pie pan. Dredge the pieces of meat on both sides in the flour mixture. Tenderize the meat using a needling device, until each slice is 1/4-inch thick. Dredge the slices on both sides once more and set aside.
- Add enough of the bacon drippings or vegetable oil to just cover the bottom of a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks to the pan, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks to a plate and repeat until all of the steaks have been browned.
- Remove the last steaks from the pot and add the onions, garlic, and celery. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Next add the tomatoes, paprika, oregano, Worcestershire sauce and beef broth and stir to combine. Return the meat to the pot, submerging it in the liquid. Cover the pot and place it in the oven on the middle rack. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.

SWISS STEAK
An old family favorite salvaged from our 30-plus-year-old cookbook. We like this served over egg noodles. I like to increase the tomatoes to a 15 ½-ounce can, and I use a full green pepper and add a teaspoon of paprika.

Steps:
- If you save your bacon drippings, they make a great oil for browning meats and potatoes. Trim the steak and cut into serving sizes. Gently coat in a light layer of flour, and salt and pepper to taste. Heat the bacon drippings in a skillet. Put a few pieces of meat in the pan at a time so they don't crowd and can brown. Brown on both sides. Put the browned meat in a large pan that can be put in the oven. When all of the meat is browned, add the onion to the pan and stir until soft. Add the can of stewed tomatoes, can of consume and red wine. Stir until mixed and pour over the browned meat. This will make the gravy. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the casserole in the oven and cook uncovered for at least an hour. This will tenderize the meat and make the gravy delicious! I always serve with homemade mashed potatoes.
