• Form 6 beef patties and season both sides with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk and 2 eggs. On a separate plate, use a fork to mix together the flour and remaining salt, pepper, and seasoned salt. The flour mixture should cover the plate evenly.
• Heat a cast iron skillet on medium-low heat, and add the olive oil and butter. It should coat the entire bottom of the skillet.
• Take one of the beef patties, put it into the flour mixture to coat the top and bottom evenly. Then dunk the patty into the bowl with the milk mixture. Put the patty back into the flour mixture to coat the top and bottom again, and set it into the skillet to cook. Repeat until you fill up your skillet.
• Cook the country fried steaks for about 3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
• Set the cooked country fried steaks onto a separate platter lined with a towel or paper towel to drain. Repeat the process until all the country fried steaks are cooked.

Making Gravy

• Pour out most of the fat and oil from the cast iron skillet, but leave about 1 tablespoon remaining. Heat your skillet on low to medium-low heat.
• Sprinkle unused seasoned flour mixture into your skillet one tablespoon at a time until it makes a paste. Use your spatula to scrape and smooth the paste and cook the flour for a minute or two.
• Then add the remaining 1 cup of milk slowly and scrape the skillet. Continue stirring until the milk and flour mixture are well combined. Keep stirring while it heats up and thickens, and take the skillet off the heat when the gravy is to your desired thickness. This is done in a matter of minutes, so keep a close watch on your gravy.
• If you cook your gravy too long and it gets too thick, simply add more milk to thin it out, and cook until it thickens again.
