to barbecu pit
boys.com today we're cooking up some
fried strip steaks with country gravy at
the pit and they're real easy to do all
right here we have some marketside
butcher brand grass-fed New York strip
steaks provided by our friends at
Walmart and uh you have to definitely
check these out they're hormone and
antibiotic free and a perfect choice for
our chicken fried steaks let me open up
one of these packets so you can see what
these steaks look like nice deep red
color good indication of that grass-fed
premium steak right
there now these here are weighing in
about anywhere from a half to 3/4 lb
each oh yeah they're going to be
good now the first thing we're going to
do is make a country gravy right and to
do that we're putting about three
tablespoons of butter into our pan and
we're going to melt it down now we want
to use a medium heat we want to go real
slow at this you're not in a rush that's
the key of making a good country gravy
now to the butter as it's melted we're
adding some flour and we're going to do
maybe as much as a half a cup of flour
right and you just keep working it in
real slow you go too fast you're going
to get a lumpy gravy and nobody wants
lumps in their gravy right yeah and you
just keep working it in it'll slowly get
thicker and
thicker now if you go too hot with this
you may burn the flour right and that's
not good so we're just going to keep
working at it slow but sure just like
that all
right all right the flour is H worked in
to the uh
butter and uh now we're going to add
some milk
as much as a cup of milk and again work
it in slow take your
time this is a real important part to
that fried strip steak right yeah now
here I'm adding uh about a half a
teaspoon of garlic that's optional we
like some garlic in our
gravy and here we've got some seasoning
little salt pepper garlic our SPG we'll
work that
in and and to kick up the pepper a bit
we're going to add some fresh BR black
peppercorn
yeah man this is going to be good now if
you've never had fried stripped steaks
with country gravy before you definitely
got to check this
out and it's
good all right now we're going to be
deep frying these right so uh we're
heating up in the oil and now we're
making an egg wash we added one egg to
about a half a cup of milk work it in
and we've got some seasoned flour we
added a little bit of salt to our
allpurpose flour so the first step is to
dredge the steak in the flour first
right then hit it in the egg wash just
like that and then go right back into
some seasoned flour and put it on nice
and thick
and we want to make it real crispy so
the trick is go back to your egg wash
once again and then back to your
seasoned
flour yeah this is going to be good just
like I
said all right now we're going to add it
on to our hot oil and the oil is about
360°
fah right around there is kind of
perfect and it's not going to take long
to
[Music]
fry and the best way to determine if
it's done or not is the color is the
texture right and uh of course we don't
want to overcook these steaks we want
them kind of uh medium to medium rare
all right that one's done we got The
Perfect
Color now let's uh show you how we do it
again just in case you uh fell asleep
this one here is a bit
thicker so again dredge it in the flour
first that lets the egg inhere to the uh
to the
steak hit it with the egg
[Music]
wash back into the
flower and dredge it
good
oh and like I said to make it extra
crispy you want to go right right back
into your egg wash
again oh man this is going to be
good and back into your seasoned
[Music]
flour who
baby and now into our
[Music]
oil and it only takes takes a few
minutes to do this
right man are you getting hungry or
what all
right this fried steak is done pull it
out of the
oil and we got a couple of more to do
and in a miracle of time o these fried
strip steaks are are
done take a look at
that man crispy fried New York strip
Stakes oh man all right let's plate one

gravy and we're going to pour it all
