Steps

1. Pat the pork steaks dry and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add steaks and leave them alone for 5 to 6 minutes until they develop a brown crust.
3. Flip the steaks and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes until an instant-read thermometer reads 145°F.
4. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes while you warm the beans and tortillas.
5. Warm the refried beans in a small saucepan, stirring often, then heat tortillas wrapped in a damp towel in the microwave for 1 minute.
6. Slice the pork steaks and serve in warm tortillas with refried beans, salsa, and cilantro.

Why it’s cheap

4 of the 8 ingredients were on sale at Publix the week of October 4, 2026, led by pork shoulder blade steaks, bone-in at $2.33 instead of $4.65.

The sale items rang up $7.59 under their regular prices.

Penny Meals prices a dinner by the share of each package you actually cook, adds an estimated shelf price for anything that wasn’t on sale, and counts pantry staples like oil and salt as free. That came to $1.76 a serving, or $7.04 for 4 servings.
