I've often heard that some firemen are good cooks. I cut this recipe out of the paper about 25 years ago. It is from an article on firemen who are good cooks and work in Jackson, TN, and the meals they prepare when on duty. This steak is so tender, and the "gravy" it makes is delicious.

Firehouse Steak in two bowls with mashed potatoes and garlic knot.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

A super easy meal to throw together on a busy day that's absolutely delicious. Cooking in a covered dish in the oven allows the round steak to become tender. The onions, bell pepper, and tomatoes cook down into a flavorful sauce. Anyone, no matter your cooking experience, can make this firehouse steak. We served it with mashed potatoes and garlic knots for a comforting dinner.

How To Make firehouse steak

Test Kitchen Tips

We checked at 90 minutes, and our meat wasn't tender. We cooked this recipe for 2 hours in total.

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Step 2

Cut steak into serving-sized pieces and dredge in flour. There's no need to brown the coated steaks, but you can slightly if you'd like. Put floured steak in a large pot with a lid. I use a large cast iron Dutch oven with a top.
Step 3

Mix other ingredients in a bowl.
Step 4

Pour tomato mixture over the steak.
Step 5

Cover and bake for about 1 1/2 hours or until tender. It's really good with biscuits or Texas Toast.
