Hoover's take on the Southern comfort food classic features a fork-tender seasoned steak coated in a crispy, golden-brown crust. Served with creamy gravy made with bacon fat and chicken stock, it's homey and satisfying, an avatar of Southern comfort itself. Don’t forget the fluffy mashed potatoes on the side.
Finalists: Hyde Park Bar & Grill, Jack Allen’s Kitchen, Moonshine Grill, Waterloo Ice House
