I still don't understand why people pour gravy or sauce over fried meat. Doesn't it get soggy?

    It sort of does but it’s not really crispness you’re going for in a chicken fried steak (or chicken). It’s just downright hearty and rich and so dang good. Have you had it before?

    I haven't tried chicken fried steak yet. But when I make Schnitzel or Backhendl crispiness is key. Whether or not pouring sauce over fried meat is ok seems to be a regional issue here in the German-speaking parts of the world. There are Reddit and Lemmy communities collecting "crimes" against Schnitzel (r/schnitzelverbrechen).
