We recently had a cow butchered and I have a TON of seven steaks. I did cumin beef with some last night and am looking for any tried- and true recipes you guys have using this cut of meat.

I remember my grandma cooking them down in either a red gravy or brown gravy depending on which one she felt like eating at the time.

I remember she'd season the meat and brown it off a bit and then make the gravy and put them in there to finish cooking and become fall off the bone tender.

My grandmother did the same and now my dad does it that way.
Brown them, then lots of onions and cook that down and out the steaks back in and simmer for a few hours.

Perfect for rice and gravy. You can also pound them flat and cut them into grillades. Great for a Sunday brunch.

It's a beef cut from the shoulder and has a bone that is a perfect "7" shape to it. Generally a tougher cut that does well with low, slow cooking.

Its the shoulder blade sliced, can carefully remove the blade and make a stuffed pocket.

If you have a magnalite pot and hot grease, they will damn near cook themselves.

for several years they were hard to find the cut going into the ground meat bucket. I have been seeing them more often now and like most folks are saying they are a cheaper cut and make great gravy steaks

If you use the Plantation Cookbook grillades from page 49 of the TR Cookbook at the top of the page, you won’t be disappointed.
