Have any of you ever heard of anyone making finger steaks out of anything other that sirloin scraps?

I heard of other muscles being used.

What is a finger steak?

kritiper's avatar

A finger steak is a scrap of sirloin, supposedly and traditionally, breaded and fried.

kritiper's avatar

Did I say breaded? I’m not sure that was accurate. Battered is better.

Never even heard of finger steaks. I must say it’s an unappetizing name.

They are very good with ketchup or some other sauce. You eat them like French fries.

Here is a recipe for batter I found:
½ c. flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
½ c. cornstarch
1 tsp. Accent
½ tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
¼ tsp. onion powder
¾ to 1 c. water

Mix all ingredients and dip finger size steak. Deep fry till done.

Finger steaks were first contrived in Boise, ID, 1957, at THE TORCH café.
