In a cast iron skillet, sauté onions and mushrooms with butter and salt on low to medium heat. Set aside.
Cut round steak into personal size pieces.
Combine flour and salt in a flat dish, like a glass baking dish.
Pound round steaks on both sides to help tenderize them.
Dredge meat in flour/salt.
Place round steaks into a hot skillet and fry them for a few minutes on each side, just to brown. Place in a dutch oven.
Add caramelized onions and mushrooms to the skillet to make a gravy from the drippings. Pour gravy and onions over round steak, as well as any fresh herbs, cover with lid, and place into preheated 350 degree oven for 2 hours.

Make sure to tenderize both sides of the meat.
Caramelizing onions takes patience. Low and slow is the best way to get the onions to caramelize without burning.
Cook with bone broth (chicken or beef) to add flavor and take advantage of the health benefits. I usually use chicken broth, because I always have some on hand.
Getting a good browning on the meat adds flavor and helps lock in the juices. Don’t skip this step.
