Pepsi Fried Steak n' Gravy

4 Lean Venison Steaks, 1/2 inch thick

2 Cans Cold Pepsi

Salt & Pepper

Poultry Seasoning

1/2 tsp Soy Sauce

1 Medium Onion, Chopped

Self-Rising Flour

3 Tablespoons Oil or Shortening

Lay the steaks out in a deep baking pan. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Cover the meat with the cans of Pepsi. Add the soy sauce, and stir it into the liquid. Refrigerate for about two hours. 

Remove the meat from the marinade, and place it on a plate. Season both sides again with the salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Roll the steaks in the flour. Using a long-handled fork, transfer the meat to a heavy frying pan in which you have heated the oil or shortening to a fairly hot temperature. If the grease is to cold the batter will fall off the meat before it gets done. Once the steaks are in the pan, surround the meat with onions, cover, and fry each side for about three minutes, or until the flour is golden brown. Remove the steaks, and keep them hot. Meanwhile, stir two tablespoons of flour into the oil/shortening and brown it for just a few seconds. Add the remainder of the marinade, stirring constantly, until you reach the desired consistency. Serve the hot gravy over mashed potatoes or biscuits.
