All right guys,

That thread the other day made me hungry!!! So... I sweet talked the wife into cooking chicken fried steak!!!

@ActionBob @spike.t @Buff-Buster

This is beef cube steak, but like I said my Grandfather used to make it from venison and elk. I told my wife that Kudu would probably make great CFS, so she may have to cook @Tootabi Hunting Safaris.... :A Gathering:

Pictures to follow shortly!

Dang now I'm hungry!

Imagine if you actually knew now good it was!!! LOL

If you get to Atlanta at some point I'm sure we can talk Nancy into making you some. :)
 
And Royal if you and Nancy ever get to Central Minnesota, let us know and we will provide Ann's favorite... We'll take you guys out to Red Lobster.
 
Awwwww.........
chicken fried anything is soooo gooood....
I almost licked the computer screen. Got a really weird look from the wife. Thanks for the pictures, now to go invent smello-vision.
 
thanks royal its 6.15am and getting sorted to head to the airport and my stomach is rumbling at the photos. :D getting some healthy cereal and then airline and airport food for the next 19hrs or so.......depending if they are on time or not........will try not to imagine those photos too much!!!!!!!!!:D
 
The first meat I tasted in Africa was springbok fillets, pounded, seasoned, dredged in flour and fried in very hot sunflower seed oil.
It was served with plenty of gravy, boiled potatoes, peas and home made bread.
They referred to it as "schnitzel".
It was, as we call it here in the USA - "chicken fried steak", except of course it was springbok and not beef or pork as we use here and the gravy was brown and not the southern USA traditional white gravy (I love them both - that's no doubt why I'm fat).
To this day, it is one of my favorite dishes, no matter where I am or exactly what meat is used (or which style of gravy it is swimming in).
I have even made this with goose breast, back when I lived where waterfowl hunting was quite good.
Just like the other readers here, the photos in this thread are making me hungry.
 
Where's Mine
 
Can't imagine how good Kudu or Impala would taste done Country style with some good Country Gravy

YES!!!! Told my wife she just might have to cook one meal in Africa....

Elk backstrap done like that is about as good as it gets. yum yum

My last meal on earth, if I could have it, would be my Grandfather cooking fried elk steak with rice and gravy.... i can never eat chicken fried anything without thinking of him...

Time to bump the thread.

I had some elk in the freezer and on a whim decided it was time to cook it up. My grandfather would have been proud, especially of the brown gravy.

Man was it ever good.

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe
