I dunno! It just said swiss steak on the package. They were big, thin cuts with a little piece of bone in each, but not like a t-bone. It was about three bucks for the whole package, so I thought...why not?
It wasn't tenderized when I got it...so I whacked it good on both sides with the edge of a saucer. Heh...primative, but it worked!
Sounds like round steak. Normally a bit chewy if you don't cook it slow and long. On the cheap side.
Anyway, round steak sounds like it would work. The recipe sounds delicious!
We have a specific saucer that "whacks" very well :-) 2J - I just buy the boneless steaks, then beat 'em to almost a pulp.
