OK, since this thread is going nowhere, I might as well take the opportunity
to learn something. Speaking as a native Californian, what the heck is
chicken fried steak? Is it chicken fried up like a steak? Maybe a steak fried by a chicken? Help ......

OK, thanks for the link Jim. It's like weiner schnitzel. Texas health food.
I can honestly say I've never had it here in the SF Bay area.

Chicken Fried Steak can definitely be found in the Virginia/North Carolina area though it's usually called Country Fried Steak.

In a pinch just find a Cracker Barrel.

Country Fried Steak
A generous portion of our USDA Choice Steak breaded and deep fried then topped with our own Sawmill Gravy.

There is a description in Dan Jenkins' Semi-Tough that starts with "a steak that has had the sh*t beat out of it" or words to that effect.

They have it here in the Cincinnati area. I've mostly seen it referred to as a Country Fried Steak, but I have seen it called Chicken Fried Steak also.

Never saw chicken fried steak in Brooklyn...but last Friday I had a dish of steamed little neck clams and bratwurst cooked in beer. Delicious and pretty funky.

At least at Momma's house...chicken fried steak and country fried steak are not the same thing. And they are not to be confused with chicken fried chicken or country fried chicken.

Out of pure curiosity what would be the difference?
