Our Momma's Peppered Steak
When I was growing up there were so many things that Momma would make that I have tried to recreate or put my own twist on. Peppered Steak is one of those meals that Momma would make about once every couple of months. When I knew she was making Peppered Steak I was always the first one in the house with my hands washed. The table would already be set and somehow I magically turned into to an angel asking her if she needed help. Oh the power of food. Momma’s Peppered Steak is a recipe that always puts a smile on my face.
Ingredients, Substitutions, and Additions
Steak – I always have made Momma’s Peppered Steak with a London broil, but if you can’t find one, flank steak or tri-tip will work. We can get a about 5 pounds of London Broil at our local wholesale club. It tends to be the cheapest way to buy it.
Bell Peppers and Onions – Bell peppers and onions are just a vital as the steak in Momma’s Peppered Steak. We use green bell pepper because they have a bitter, not sweet taste and yellow onions for a similar reason. We have tried using red bell pepper and onions but it leaves a sweeter aftertaste.
Seasonings – Momma always went simple on seasonings by using only pepper and garlic salt. I have tried using other seasonings and have found that adding some thyme, rosemary, and sage add awesome flavor. Dried minced garlic and onion enhance can also add tons of flavor. Use what you like.
Brown Gravy Mix – I have a large container of brown grave mix and we use 6 tbs of mix to 2 cups hot water. Two packets of brown gravy mix will make 2 cups of gravy for Momma’s Peppered Steak.
