BEST BIEROCK RECIPE EVER



Best Bierock Recipe Ever image

This recipe comes from a childhood memory. My mom was no Julia Childs, let me tell you, more like Bridget Jones. But when she made bierocks, they were good. I tried a lot of bierock recipes, but most of them called for frozen dough (yuck!). I use a bread machine, but that is not necessary. Mom's were good, mine are great!

BIEROCK CASSEROLE



Bierock Casserole image

Growing up in Kansas, I have enjoyed Bierocks (some call them Runzas) all my life. The yeasty Bierock (or Runza) sandwich have German-Russian roots that eventually made their way west to Nebraska and Kansas. You can find these sandwiches at county and state fairs, craft shows and just about any fund-raiser in Kansas most any time of the year. About 15 years ago a friend I worked with, gave me this recipe for a casserole instead of a sandwich. We love it almost as much as the real deal! Note: I use only name brand crescent rolls. The cheaper ones don't seem to work as well. Also the original recipe called for only 1 can of cream of mushroom soup. We personally like the soupier mixture but you can omit the second can if desired.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 9 x 13, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium head of cabbage, shredded (about 3 cups)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
2 (15 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
2 (8 count) packages crescent rolls
1 1/2 cups cheese, shredded
1 carrot, finely shredded
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Brown the ground beef and onion together until the meat is no longer pink. Drain well.
  • Add the shredded cabbage and carrot; steam until they are tender.
  • Combine the beef and cabbage mixture, soups and seasonings together and keep warm.
  • Lightly spray a 9"x13" pan or casserole with cooking spray.
  • Take one package of the crescent rolls and lay out in the bottom of the pan. Press lightly to form a "crust" and sealing as well as you can. Press gently up the sides of the pan about 1/4" - 1/2" high.
  • Bake crust in a preheated 350 degree oven about 7 minutes to give it a chance to bake thoroughly.
  • Take the pan out and pour the hamburger & cabbage mixture over the undercooked crust.
  • Sprinkle with cheese.
  • Take the 2nd package of crescent rolls and break apart along the seams and lay on top of the pan.
  • Bake another 35 - 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown. (I will lift up the bottom to make sure that the bottom crust is done before removing from the oven. If you think the top is getting too brown, just top with foil until finished baking).

Tips:

  • For a crispy crust, use cold butter and ice water when making the dough.
  • Roll the dough out thinly, about 1/8 inch thick, to ensure it cooks evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into squares, as this will help prevent the filling from seeping out during baking.
  • Be generous with the filling, as this is what gives the bierrocks their flavor.
  • Bake the bierrocks until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, about 20-25 minutes.
  • Serve the bierrocks warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.
