This was very dry when done and the flavor didn't come through either. A bit disappointed with the end result. I wouldn't make again.

I have made Swiss Steak like this for years! However, I don't put mine in the oven. I just cover it and cook it on top of the stove. I imagine you could use a slow cooker, too, once you have browned the meat. It is never dry this way and has a wonderful flavor (I add more Worcestershire because I love it). I serve with mashed potatoes and green beans. Thanks for sharing!

Sorry this Swiss steak was much too dry. I will try it again but will put a cover on it for the first 45 minutes, then finish cooking uncovered. We very much loved the flavour, it was nice and tender also. I will try it again.
