I grew up eating bierocks and somehow had never made them for Kelly until a member of his men’s class mentioned he loved bierocks. I made some for him and for Kelly, too. Now they’re a thing.
Bierocks
I make these by rote, but this is a pretty good how-to:
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/2 t pepper
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 3 c shredded cabbage
- Tabasco to taste
- 20 Rhodes rolls, thawed
- Butter
Cook beef, salt and pepper to taste. Add onion and cabbage; cook until vegetables are tender. Season with Tabasco (I use around 1 T). Flatten rolls into 3″ circles. Place 2-3 T beef and vegetable mixture in center of roll. Pinch to close dough around filling. Let rise for an hour or so. Smear top with a little softened butter and bake at 350F for 25 min or until golden brown.
PS – these freeze really well and taste delicious dipped in a variety of hot sauces!
