Really good! I have been looking for a good recipe for this for years. I use cube steak or round steak, add some more seasoning... garlic, basil, everglades seasoning, and extra salt & pepper. I slow cook & thicken up a little & serve over rice. This is a good Comfort Food! Thanks for the recipe.

I thought this was a little bland, and the cube steaks don't really get infused with any flavor.

What a great recipe to come home to on a cold grey windy day!! Absolutely delicious. The only change I made was to use red/green/yellow peppers since that's what I had in the freezer. Thank you!

This was excellent. I left mine in the crockpot too long, though, and the meat just fell apart. We ate the meat & sauce mixture over brown rice and loved it. Thanks for a great recipe.

Great Swiss Steak recipe. I made it just as printed except that I substituted a 28 oz can of stewed tomatoes instead of crushed for the top layer and reduced the bell pepper to just one. I cooked mine on low for 10 hours and it was perfect. I removed about 2 cups of the juice and thickened it on the stove with a little cornstarch and water to make the sauce a bit thicker. DH said that it reminded him of galumpkis w/o the cabbage. Everyone had seconds even though we were stuffed. Next time, I might spice it up mexican style with enchilada sauce.
