Going to cook this tonight. My only concern is I don’t have butter milk. I will see if I can find a good substitute. I will let you know how it turns out Thanks for the recipe, I am sure we will love ❤️ it without buttermilk. (I hope lol)

I look forward to trying many more of your awesome recipes.

Thanks, Vickie

Vickie, You can use regular whole milk if you don't have buttermilk.

Outstanding recipe! I used it as the base for making my country fried pork steaks, and used the pan drippings to make country style gravy. I then created a spin on the Loco Moco by layering rice, country fried pork steaks, gravy, and sliced tomatoes, topped with a fried egg. Really good…. It will become a regular in my house! Thank you for sharing.

I made this tonight but tweeked it slightly. I added 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, 2 tsp of baking powder & 1 tsp of baking soda. These were hands down the best I've ever made!! Thank you for such a tasty recipe. We will definitely be making this again!

I got a little confused with the buttermilk, only used it once before and actually just noticed you’re supposed to refrigerate the powder once opened 😕 that being said I don’t know if what I tasted is supposed to be like that. Will try this recipe again with a fresh can of BM.

@Julia Jordan, can I use whole milk instead?

I'm glad that you'll try the recipe again. I've never used powdered buttermilk so I'm afraid I don't have any experience to offer with it.

I made this two nights ago. The only difference was that I soaked the steaks in buttermilk all day. Then, I just took it out of that, dredged it in the seasoned flour and fried it up. Was absolutely delicious! I am now making it again tonight for more family! Thanks for sharing!
