Kraut Bierocks image

These meat-and-cabbage-mixture filled sweet rolls make a great main dish, and are also great as a snack. They reheat well, so leftovers are also great! Sauerkraut can be used in place of the cabbage for more of a 'kraut flavor'.

Time 1h45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
½ cup white sugar
2 cups warm water
4 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup powdered milk
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ cup shortening
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound ground Italian sausage
1 cup chopped onion
3 cups shredded cabbage
3 tablespoons prepared mustard
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
½ cup shredded, processed American cheese
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • To Make Sweet Dough: In a medium bowl combine the yeast, sugar and water and mix together; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in flour, dry milk, baking powder and shortening, then knead mixture for 10 minutes, adding as little flour as necessary. Cover bowl with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, then knead again.
  • To Make Filling: Meanwhile, brown beef, sausage and onion in a large skillet over medium high heat. Drain extra fat from skillet, then stir in cabbage, mustard, salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Add cheese and cook, stirring, until cheese is melted.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Flatten a piece of dough. Place large spoonful of meat filling onto dough and fold over to form a round bun. Lay folded-side-down in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biercks turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

These were a bit too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used a store-bought sauerkraut. I'll try making my own next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biercks turned out really greasy. I think I might have added too much butter to the dough.
