Sour Cream Cubed Beef
Sour Cream Cubed Beef- cubed beef slow cooks in a sour cream sauce in the oven until tender. This is pure comfort food y’all. The sauce is extra thick and flavorful.
This recipe is kind of like Beef stroganoff but without the mushrooms.
Sour Cream
The sour cream acts as a tenderizer because of its acidity. It will break down some of the tough meat fibers that are highly present in an inexpensive cut of meat like cubed steak.
Thick Sour Cream Gravy
Three tablespoons of flour are mixed with the gravy ingredients to thicken the gravy. The gravy is flavored with onion‚ garlic‚ soy sauce‚ brown sugar for a little sweetness‚ and red pepper flakes for a little heat.
Note: Two tablespoons of brown sugar add a sweetness to the gravy. Cut it in half if you want a more savory‚ less sweet gravy.
How To Serve Sour Cream Cubed Beef
This gravy/sauce is made to be served with mashed potatoes‚ rice‚ or pasta. I love a side of either green peas or Southern-Style Green Beans with it. And Yeast Rolls go great with cubed beef.
What To Do If Gravy Is Too Thick
I love a super thick gravy but get that not everyone does. If yours is too thick‚ add enough milk to thin to your liking.
How To Make Cubed Beef Tender
Cubed beef is an inexpensive cut of meat that is usually made from top round or top sirloin. Because it has very little fat‚ you have to be careful how you cook it. Slow cooking it breaks down some of the fibers and tenderizes it. In this recipe‚ the beef is first browned in oil and then slow cooked in the oven for 1 1/2 hours‚ after which it is wonderfully tender. The sour cream in this recipe also helps tenderize the cubed steak.
