Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Gather all ingredients.
Step 2
Season steaks with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; set aside.
Step 3
Combine flour and 1 teaspoon pepper in a shallow plate. Place beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Dredge seasoned steaks in flour. Dip in eggs, then dredge in flour again.
Step 4
Heat lard in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry steaks in hot lard until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 5
Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from the skillet. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons dredging flour into fat. Cook and stir over medium heat for 1 minute, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Step 6
Gradually whisk in milk. Cook, whisking frequently, until gravy is thickened and bubbly, 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 7
Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; gravy should be quite peppery. Serve and enjoy!
