Swiss Steak Recipe II

This is another recipe for Swiss steak.  Like many other popular dishes, it seems like everyone has their own favorite version.  The basic main ingredient besides the meat is the use of tomatoes.  In this case there are also mushrooms and bell peppers involved. 

Onion soup is that magic little pouch which has so many flavors packed inside.  A-1 Steak Sauce also makes an appearance. 

Chef Henderson Wm Brand created A-1 Steak Sauce for his client King George IV of the United Kingdom.   Now we can purchase this wonderful, flavorful condiment in any grocery store.
