what the heck do I do with it?
I impulse bought some thin cut eye round cuz it was on super duper red sticker costs a buck sale. Now I don't know what to do with it/...I was thinking about treating it like cube steak and making chicken fried steak out of it (no, no CMS, I make my own gravy:smack:) but I wasn't sure if that would turn out..other ideas?

If it were me I'd turn it into inedible shoe leather because that's typically what I do with round.

Maybe pound it (tenderize it) and fry at high heat for steak sandwiches on toast. :shrug: That's what I would do cuz it's quick and easy.

You have two choices to make:
(1) either cook quickly so that it is still nicely rare; or
(2) cook it in long and slow in a crock-pot, ala' beef stew, or in a soup, stir-fry, etc. Even if cooked this way, be sure to slice it rather thinly.
Otherwise, cooked medium or well-done it becomes too tough to enjoy.

That's what I'd do too... use a tenderizing mallet on it until it looks like the minute steaks (sandwich steaks) they get top $$ for in the store. Salt, fry in butter and onions and serve it on a really good roll.

These would be the only options I would do w/ it. You could even throw it in the crock pot w/ some beer and seasonings to do like a bbq beef.

both good ideas..it is really super thin cut..so I could probably get away with using it for sandwiches..

How about country fried steak? Pound/tenderize the meat, season it, dredge it in buttermilk then seasoned flour and fry it up....then, make gravy with the drippings, a little of the leftover flour and milk. Serve with biscuts and green beans :yay:

Pound it thinner, chop it up and quick pan fry. Make a steak and cheese sub with it. :drool:

Use it along with some ground beef to make chili.
Make a dress from it and wear it to the Grammy's.
