Pork cube steak, also known as pork minute steak, has a rich history rooted in Southern cuisine. This dish originated as a way to tenderize tough cuts of pork by pounding them into thin steaks, then coating them in seasoned flour and pan-frying to perfection. The result is a crispy, flavorful dish that has become a staple in Southern comfort food. Renowned chefs like Paula Deen and Emeril Lagasse have popularized this dish, adding their own unique twists. Today, the best versions of pork cube steak can be found in Southern diners and family-owned restaurants, where it's often served with creamy mashed potatoes and smothered in savory gravy. The key to a perfect pork cube steak lies in achieving a crispy, golden-brown crust while keeping the meat tender and juicy on the inside. Some alternative methods include marinating the steaks in buttermilk or using a seasoned batter for extra flavor. Whether enjoyed in a classic diner or homemade with a personal touch, pork cube steak continues to be a beloved comfort food dish.
