Cube steak or ground patties?
Tomatoes, gravy or both?

When I make this I use Cube Steaks and gravy.

I use tomatoes with Swiss Steak.

I have never used both in a recipe but did run across one which is what
lead me to this post.

Cube steak or pounded round steak for Swiss Steak. Ground patties for
Salisbury Steak.

Gravy with tomatoes for Swiss Steak. Gravy for Salisbury Steak.

JMHO. Always had it that way.

I'm sure I have seen the same recipes prior to today, but today was the day
that I decided to stop and consider all the alternatives! :-) Thanks for
your input. I have used ground for salisbury, but never gravy with the
tomatoes for swiss. I will have to give it a try.

Here is a good recipe for Swiss Steak that uses tomatoes and a smattering
of other vegetables for flavor. I've made it many times.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 pounds boneless round steak -- about 1/2-inch thick
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons oil
2 medium carrots chopped
1 medium onion -- chopped
1 small bell pepper -- seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 can tomatoes -- (14.5 ounces) diced
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 teaspoon salt -- or to taste
pepper -- to taste

Cut steak into 6 serving-size pieces.

In a food storage bag, combine 3 tablespoons flour, mustard, the 1/2
teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Rub over steak and pound with a
meat tenderizing mallet.

In a large skillet heat oil over medium high heat. Add steak pieces; brown
on both sides. Transfer browned steak pieces to a greased 2 1/2-quart
baking dish. Top with the carrots, onion, and green pepper. Sprinkle with
brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Pour tomatoes over all. Cover and
bake at 350° until tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Transfer to a serving
dish and keep warm.

Strain juices into a measuring cup and add water to make 1 cup. In a
saucepan, combine the 2 tablespoons of flour with 1/4 cup water, stirring
until smooth. Whisk in the 1 cup pan juices.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Continue to boil, stirring, until
thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper, to taste.
Serve gravy with the steak. Serves 6.

That has been my experience. My first impression from looking at the
various recipes was that some people had the 2 confused or the possibility
that there were regional differences.
