Swiss steak is a classic comfort food that can be made with ease in a crock pot. This hearty and flavorful dish is a great option for a weeknight meal, as it can be prepared in the morning and cooked throughout the day. Swiss steak is typically made with beef chuck roast, which is a tough cut of meat that becomes tender when cooked slowly. The meat is seared in a skillet before being transferred to the crock pot, where it is cooked in a flavorful broth with vegetables. The result is a tender and juicy steak that is smothered in a rich and savory sauce. Serve Swiss steak with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice for a complete meal.

One of my favorite crock pot recipes. Great for cold winter nights when the days are short and the nights are long dark and cold! Warms you from the inside out! From bettycrocker.com This note is on the website with this recipe: Note: "This recipe was tested in slow cookers with heating elements in the side and bottom of the cooker, not in cookers that stand only on a heated base. For slow cookers with just a heated base, follow the manufacturer's directions for layering ingredients and choosing a temperature."

CROCK POT SWISS STEAK
I used to make this when I had my little café in AZ. Back then I baked it in the oven, so now I have adapted the recipe for the crockpot and it is so good. I think of it as comfort food, as I certainly feel comforted when I eat it. I hope you like it as well as my family does.

Steps:
- 1. Mix soup, garlic, chopped peppers, water, liquid smoke together in med. size bowl and set aside.
- 2. Cut beef into serving sizes, cut all gristle and tendons out of the meat.
- 3. Dredge beef steaks in flour and fry in vegetable oil till golden brown. Set aside.
- 4. Slice onion thin.
- 5. I used a crock pot liner for this, sure saves a lot of cleanup later. Pour some sauce in bottom of pot, follow with some steak, add onions on top of steak, then a generous covering of the soup mixture. Continue layering till ingredients are gone.
- 6. Cook on high for 5 hours, then add the quartered potatoes and turn on low for another 2 1/2 hours. Push the potatoes down so they are all covered, you may have to add a little water if sauce becomes too thick. Hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
- 7. The sauce makes a wonderful gravy over the potatoes.
