My 2 cents is that I would cut up the shoulder steak into bite sized pieces and then do it in homemade BBQ sauce after a quick fry. Serve over rice.
Would only work if you beat the living hell out of it first. The shoulder being cut up into steaks basically puts you in that nasty "too much heat" situation, where there's no way to get it tender unless you apply as little heat to it as possible, just barely enough to get it done.
DH cooks pork steaks on the grill, basting with my oriental BBQ sauce.
He also likes them with just salt, pepper and garlic, but I find those tough and dry.
I've also fixed them Creole style, like Uncle Bob, and they are very good that way!
Michael has a good idea, except I'd cook them with sauerkraut instead. That would be good for the crockpot.
Hey babetoo, I moved this to its own thread so you will get more response. Hope it helps!

can DC's Admins more comprehensively code our forum's Ignore Functions to include turning off bigdaddy3k's tagline?
Gravy? I used to cal it gravy until the food snobs told me to call it sauce.Yeah, it's good with sauerkraut, too, if you want something a little more pungent. I started making it with the sweet and sour red cabbage because of my step-mom, I was trying to vary her diet and she didn't like sauerkraut, but she liked it when I did it this way.
And Bill - that sounds a lot like my big old pot of Italian gravy that I make once in a while .... about 10-12 pounds of meat (sausages, pork chops or roast, beef roast, meatballs, chicken thighs or breasts, etc.) makes enough for about a weeks worth of meals.
