Instructions: Dredge your meat pieces in salted and peppered flour with the dry mustard sprinkled over it and brown pieces in bacon grease. Put in covered casserole or crock pot and cover with a mixture of all the other ingredients. Add enough liquid (stock or water) to make sure pieces will be under. Bake covered at 300 degrees F. for 2 1/2-3 hrs until meat is tender. Take off cover and bake until sauce is good and thick.

NOTES : Well, I made the modified version of the Venison Swiss Steak recipe that was posted last week, and it was delicious. As we had discussed, I cut the bacon grease down to 1 tablespoon, and I also included 1 slice of bacon which I fried until it was crisp and crumbled into the pot with the other ingredients. I used the fat that it yielded (which was less than a tablespoon) for the bacon for the slice of bacon includes the fat that fries out of it, but I included it as as a separate ingredient, just to make sure.)

Also, the original recipe didnt give an amount for the dry mustard; it just mentioned it in the directions. I used 1 teaspoon. and what a treat this dish was. The gravy is so flavorful. We ate it over some pasta along with the meat.
