Well, I finally cooked something last night. Nothing special but it was pretty tasty. I was browsing around at Sam's Club yesterday and spied a big package of eye of round, round steaks. It was basically an eye of round cut into big thick steaks about 2 inches thick. The package was about 6 pounds and conveniently sliced into 6 pieces. It was reduced for quick sale for $8 and some change. I bought it and made a pot roast/Swiss steakish meal of it. I put about 1/4 inches of vegetable oil in my big skillet. While it heated up I put some flour, ground sea salt, ground pepper and garlic powder onto a big jelly roll pan and mixed it all around. I rinsed and dried the meat then stabbed both sides multiple times with a fork. Dredged both sides of the meat into the flour and then tenderized the meat with a meat mallet. I put into the hot oil (a couple of pieces at a time)browning on both sides and transferred to a large casserole dish. Topped the meat with sliced onions and green bell pepper. A large can of diced tomatoes and a couple of cans of tomato sauce. Smeared it all around so the meat was well covered. Covered the casserole dish with foil and popped it into the pre-heated oven (350 degrees) on the middle rack. I left it in there until fall apart tender (2 1/2 -3 hrs). Served with home made mashed and peas.

Sounds dee - lish, I was thinking of just this as one of my first fall meals...additionally I'd add carrots and some dried shiitakes to this.

Mmmmm... I have not made Hungarian goulash in ages. Dayum that sounds good. It will be on my "to do" list also.
