AL'S BAKED SWISS STEAK
This is a variation on another recipe, which is great as is, but I couldn't make Swiss steak without green peppers or garlic. I also season the meat instead of the flour; it gets a more intense taste that way.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Cut the meat with the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices and season on both sides with the salt and pepper. Place the flour into a pie pan. Dredge the pieces of meat on both sides in the flour mixture. Tenderize the meat using a needling device, until each slice is 1/4-inch thick. Dredge the slices on both sides once more and set aside.
- Add enough of the bacon drippings or vegetable oil to just cover the bottom of a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks to the pan, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks to a plate and repeat until all of the steaks have been browned.
- Remove the last steaks from the pot and add the onions, garlic, and celery. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Next add the tomatoes, paprika, oregano, Worcestershire sauce and beef broth and stir to combine. Return the meat to the pot, submerging it in the liquid. Cover the pot and place it in the oven on the middle rack. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.

Tips:
- Use a good quality cut of meat. Swiss steak is typically made with a tough cut of beef, such as chuck roast or round steak. Using a good quality cut of meat will help to ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
- Marinate the meat. Marinating the steak in a mixture of olive oil, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Cook the steak over low heat. Swiss steak is a slow-cooked dish. Cooking the steak over low heat will help to ensure that the meat is cooked evenly and does not become tough.
- Use a heavy pot. A heavy pot will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the steak from burning.
- Add vegetables to the pot. Vegetables such as onions, carrots, and celery can be added to the pot along with the steak. This will help to add flavor and nutrition to the dish.
- Serve the steak with mashed potatoes or rice. Mashed potatoes or rice are a classic side dish for Swiss steak.
