By the way, do you know the general difference between "chicken fried" and "country fried" steak?

But legend has it the story goes like this...

Chicken fried steak is prepared similarly to fried chicken, and includes the use of an egg wash prior to frying. Country fried steak, popular among Southwest states, likely started because of the German immigrant-influenced wiener schnitzel.
