Being on a low carb diet, I changed the recipe a little and used Sprite Zero and low fat cream of mushroom soup. The gravy was very tasty...meat a little tough (not terrible though, my husband liked it and he is very picky). Wonder if it is because of the variation.

I read all the existing reviews and followed some of their advice as well as tried some other things. I made the sauce as is and seasoned the chops with garlic salt, pepper and onion powder. It was fantastic and my 9 yr old ate 2 chops! I tried it another time with a whole cut-up chicken and received rave reviews! I also tried it over a pork roast in the crock pot, but I think the sauce cooked too long and it ruined the flavor a bit. I have shared this sauce recipe with my friends and will keep it as a permanent replacement to bottled barbecue sauce!

OMG! Whats cooking tonight. My family loved this meal. After reading the reviews I cooked my dish in a slow cooker and only used one can of condense soup. A really great tasting meal and you would not know it was cook in lemon-lime drink unless you saw me as I prepared the meal. Will cook again. Also since I used a slow cooker high 6hours very tender.

The flavor of this was wonderful; however, the gravy was a little thin. I think next time I will cut the 7-Up in half.

I rated this recipe a 4 because I modified it a bit. I doubled the seasoning for the cube steaks, and added about 2 tsp of garlic powder. I also added 1 can of mushrooms. First, I mixed the mushroom soup, the onion soup mix, with 1 can of Sprite and 1 can of mushrooms in the slowcooker. Then I added the seasoned steaks. Next time I will cook it longer so the meat is tenderer. I thickened the sauce with cornstarch mixed with water. I served this on a bed of couscous (Tired of having rice, pasta or potatoes). It was delicious!!

This was awesome! But, I changed it quite a bit. Based on history, cube steak needs a long time to cook. Because of that & on others' reviews I did it in my crock pot. Instead of 2 cans of crm mush (or crm whatever) I did one can of beef gravy & 1 crm mush. I did use the cajun seasoning, didnt really notice it tho, just good flavor all around. Added 1/2 packet of onion soup, only about 1 cup of sprite and a big splash of h20. Sliced some onions and stuck it all in the pot for about 4 hours. Could have gone longer actually, but its really, really good. (the rest is still cooking in it) Not too salty w/ my changes. I never recommend 2 cans of condensed soup, its very salty if you dont fully water/milk it down. Finally I added a corn starch/water combo after I took the meat out and let it thicken for a few. Delicious! Thanks for the great idea w/ ingredients I had on hand!!

Even though I made some changes it still turned out good. I did not use the cajun seasoning and instead of soda I used water. I also pan fried my steak and mixed all the ingredients together in a bowl and poured the mixture over the steak while they were cooking on the stove. Yummy i will do this again.

My husband and I love this recipe. The steaks were kind of tuff but the gravy is great. Id like to try this in a slow cooker for tender steaks. I also left out the cajun seasoning. I read the bad reviews that said it was too sweet or too salty, but it turned out to be a perfect balance for me. Im excited to use this gravy on other meats.

The gravy for this was excellent, but the meat wasn't very tender. I followed the recipe exactly, except I used garlic instead of cajun seasoning. But Maybe I didn't put enough Sprite in there to completely tenderize the meat. All in all was a great meal! This recipe would be excellent with some pork chops, or maybe some ground beef patties.

This recipe was cool. I was intrigued by the lemon lime soda, I just happened to have cubed steak and 7-up in the fridge so...I thought it was good. My 3 kids liked it as well. I think sprite would have made too sweet, 7-up has more club soda flavor. It only had a very slight sweet flavor I added fresh mushrooms and onions as well. I will make this again.

This is a tasty recipe, though I will admit that I made some changes. I was afraid of the saltiness so instead of the onion soup mix, I used dried onion ans seasonings instead. I had no lemon-lime soda so I used a bottle of Mike's Hard lemonade left over from a party. It turned out wonderfully, though next time I will cook in my slow cooker, as suggested by som others.

This was good. I used diet Sprite instead, both cream of chicken and mushroom soup, and added garlic, onion and pepper. I also added some hot sauce to my own plate, extra yummy! Nice and tender...

Yummy!! Even my kids (2 and 3) ate it! I used steak seasoning instead of the cajun (I do not like spicy) and used real onions instead of the onion soup. I baked for abou 90 min. We used venison cube steak and venison steak. Both were wonderful! I served with garlic mashed potatoes and green beans. As my husband says "add to my list of favorites!"

My husband were rating this he would have given it a 5 star. The dish had an odd taste to me because of the sweetness. I may make it again for my husband but I wouldn't make it for any other reason.
