I have pork cube steaks, thin slices of I don’t know what cut of pork, put through the store tenderizer, and I want to cook them quickly for tonight. I have barbeque sauce and thought a quick saute and simmer, covered, in the oven for an hour or two?.. Is that possible or should I put them in the slow cooker for tomorrow? ---

I’ve only ever cooked them by coating in well-seasoned bread crumbs and quickly browning them over medium-high heat in a little oil in a big saute pan. ---

I would Egg wash them and lightly dust them in seasoned flour, brown in lite oil (your choice) then braise them in thinned out BBQ sauce for an hour…Slap on a slab of lightly toasted sourdough with dill pickles on the side. Hey, you asked… 🙂 ---

Do this then top with caramelized onions, jalapenos and pepperjack cheese. Put under the broiler just until the cheese starts to brown and serve on a toasted sandwich roll with a bit of BBQ sauce. ---

Cut them in fingers and fry em quick. When done toss them in bbq sauce with a bit of hot sauce. Think chicken wings. ---

If you cook thin sliced pork slowly, it will be dry and tough. Whatever recipe you choose, get a move on. 🙂 Honestly I think that’s the main thing. ---

OK, thank you. I will cook them tomorrow slowly in some sauce in the oven. ---

Technically, it’s chicken-fried steak, but with pork. Or chicken-fried pork cutlets. Cubed. ---

Batter fry it like a chicken, pour molten butter over it, then put in white sausage sauce.
