I served about 30 men with this and instant potatoes. The gravy is fantastic. I upped the meat to 15lbs and used bottom and too round steak. Also it took me 6 whole sticks of butter to get it all seared and sautéed. Sent From My Freemasonry Pro App

I recently made this baked steak for a raising at my lodge and it was a huge hit. Great recipe for feeding lots of hungry brethren! I modified this recipe to add 5 red onions and 2 packs of baby portobello mushrooms. Slice and sauté the shrooms and onions first. Then layer the steak first then...
