I love vintage recipes like this one. I think it would be great for you to do a series. My mom's cookbook looks very much like your Grandma's, only it's dark green. I would love recipes using Chuck roasts, too.
I've been looking for this recipe forever (I just turned 64 and haven't had it in 50 yrs.) My mom used to make it and I loved it. It is exactly the one. Thank you!!!
Grew up with swiss steak. Mom’s version had a lot of onions and instead of tomato pepper carrot, she used some bottled chili sauce (the tangy sweet kind by Heinz) with some cream of tomato, not diluted. We also had mushrooms. Later on when I moved out and beef was out of budget for me I would make it with pork chops. Also very yummy.
Love vintage recipes. And with prices rising weekly, simple sometimes means cheaper. I know my grandparents during the depression, and WWll, money was scarce and so was food.
Thanks so much for showing this recipe! I grew up with my mom making this many times, my family being on a very tight budget. It was always delicious! Definitely making this coming in this new year.
More please. I have my Mother's Mrs. Dulls Southern Cooking (The Bible of Southern cooking for many years (40s-70s)), with all of her notations, and half or doubled ingredients, etc. Like use butter instead of lard for better flavor. Cooking was way different back then.
Love this! Vintage recipes sound great! My husband’s family does smothered steak with only onion. I love the idea of all the veggies! I always thought his recipe lacked something! Can’t wait to try this.
I love Swiss Steak. Fortunately, it's one of the recipes my late mother wrote down for me years ago. Thanks for reminding me what a great comfort food it is.
Growing up, my mom made Swiss steak. I think she used cube steak or another cheap cut of steak. She added in her homemade chilli sauce and would cook it in her large electric fry pan. It would simmer for hours and you could cut the steak with a fork. It was delicious. Sadly, all her hand written recipes were lost after she passed away.
Swiss steak was my mom’s specialty. ☺️ She used a pressure cooker and included carrots, onions, and canned whole tomatoes. Served over mashed potatoes. 😋 I’d love a vintage series! Especially with mixed drinks!
I grew up eating Swiss steak and still make it. I often remove the meat and most of the veggies and make gravy from the juicy goodness when it’s finished and serve it with mashed potatoes.
I think cooking through that vintage cookbook would be great. Would love to see more vintage recipes. I have an old Betty Crocker cookbook (like '50s) that I use quite a bit.
Nicole you were generous with your meat thickness. Back in the late 50's when I was a kid I remember them being thin. My Mama beat them out bigger. Beef was expensive. Ours was served over rice. Thanks for this recipe. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025. We also had the same recipe using pork. That was delicious also.
Hey Nicole, Swiss steak is one of my faves. My wife can't eat the green pepper so I put in a rib of celery. I've never tried the mushrooms but I believe I will the next time I make it. Good stuff!
My mother used celery instead of green bell pepper. If she was still with us she would be 92 years old and I imagine she was using her mother's Swiss steak recipe. She also added a teaspoon of sugar. We served over mashed potatoes.
This was an absolute stale dish in my house growing up. My father didn’t like the vegetables so it was just tomato and onion but absolutely delicious and we always had it with mashed potatoes.
I would devour that, my wife on the other hand would be picking everything out of it !!! She is hard to cook for ! Our Mother was always making quick classic recipes as growing up we were on a limited income because our Dad was in the Air Force and back in the 70's-80's Military pay was minimal back then. But she made sure us Boys knew how to cook before we both went out and served our country. Cooking to me is fun.
When you first started talking about Swiss steak I was thinking Salisbury steak and I thought you got the recipe wrong but I stand corrected. Thank you very much keep rocking on Nicole you’re the best.😂😊❤
Vintage meals please. My mom always used eye of round (which I personally despise). However, I liked your use of the rump cut so I think I’ll give that a try. The veggies you chose look great too. Looked fantastic over rice.
I have some old cook books from the early 1900's, oddly I've never made anything from them, I just collected the Books because I was a Printer for 50 yrs. and when I'm in an Antique Shop, I'll buy old books and magazines, I have a really nice collection of Saturday Evening Post's and Look Magazine, I should thumb through them for Recipes and try some. I have had Swiss Steak long ago cooked by my Dad's Mom, they were from the St. Louis area. My Mom's family were from rural Canada so their Recipes were pretty unique too, mostly based on Scottish Recipes my Great Grandparents were from Scotland...I couldn't understand a word they said to me as a kid, I would look to Mom to translate for me. 😆
Love the idea of vintage recipes!

Cream of tomato I'm going to have to look for that.
Love vintage recipes. And with prices rising weekly, simple sometimes means cheaper. I know my grandparents during the depression, and WWll, money was scarce and so was food.

Nicole! OF COURSE do the vintage series!! Very important these days to show everyone how to eat cheap and hardy these days!
That would be a great idea. I want to see more vintage recipes 😋
I think cooking through that vintage cookbook would be great. Would love to see more vintage recipes. I have an old Betty Crocker cookbook (like '50s) that I use quite a bit.
My favourite meatloaf is from my mums Betty Crocker book from the 1960s.
My family loves every recipe I make from it.
The old classics are still the best good hearty food
I love your videos, thank you so much, yes I will make swiss steak. Thank you for the description.

Nicole you were generous with your meat thickness. Back in the late 50's when I was a kid I remember them being thin. My Mama beat them out bigger. Beef was expensive. Ours was served over rice. Thanks for this recipe. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025.
We also had the same recipe using pork. That was delicious also.
I'd love to see more vintage recipes please!
In my family it has always been called Spanish steak. My mom wasn't a great cook but she could make this and it was so good.
Please do a series!
Hey Nicole, Swiss steak is one of my faves. My wife can't eat the green pepper so I put in a rib of celery. I've never tried the mushrooms but I believe I will the next time I make it. Good stuff!

I grew up on this. Always l9ved it. Still do
Yes on the vintage recipes.
My mother used celery instead of green bell pepper. If she was still with us she would be 92 years old and I imagine she was using her mother's Swiss steak recipe. She also added a teaspoon of sugar. We served over mashed potatoes.
My dad used to make it with all the extra tomatoes in the garden it was really good I haven’t made this in a long time
Would love more vintage recipes
Yes please do some recipes from the 40’s-50’s!!!

Next time try a recipe in those old thin pots. I tried an old 40's-50's in her pot. Next-level learning curve.
I have some old cook books from the early 1900's, oddly I've never made anything from them, I just collected the Books because I was a Printer for 50 yrs. and when I'm in an Antique Shop, I'll buy old books and magazines, I have a really nice collection of Saturday Evening Post's and Look Magazine, I should thumb through them for Recipes and try some.

I like your shirt. That was my first concert in 76. More vintage please.
Yes yes yes...I still have my mom's 1940 better homes and garden hard copy cookbook.....
YES FOR VINTAGE!!!
