1.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2.
Add enough of the bacon drippings or vegetable oil to just cover the bottom of a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks to the pan, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks to a plate and repeat until all of the steaks have been browned.
3.
Remove the last steaks from the pot and add the onions, garlic, and celery. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Next add the tomatoes, paprika, oregano, Worcestershire sauce and beef broth and stir to combine. Return the meat to the pot, submerging it in the liquid. Cover the pot and place it in the oven on the middle rack. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.
4.
Place in baking dish with drained mushrooms and consommee.
5.
Bake, covered 3 hours at 200.
6.
Dredge the pieces of meat on both sides in the flour mixture.
7.
Tenderize on both sides with tenderizer mallet or side of a plate. If you use a plate, do it criss-cross. It's ok if the meat breaks.
8.
Coat Steaks in mustard and dredge through flour.
10.
Brown both sides in oil.
