directions

  • Brown the ground beef in a pan with the onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Add the cabbage to the ground beef mixture.
  • Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes until the cabbage is limp.
  • Add grated cheese to your liking and set aside to cool until just warm. Taste and season again if necessary.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 170 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
  • Separate the dough into 2 pieces and roll out each into a 12-inch circle.
  • Cut each circle into 6 wedges. Using a spoon, put a small amount of the ground beef mixture filling into the centre. Bring the three points of each wedge up to the centre and pinch to seal.
  • Place Bierocks on a lightly greased baking sheet. If you like, mix egg white and water and brush the tops of the bierocks with mixture.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve hot.

  1. Tasty and fairly easy to make. Used 4 cups of already shredded slaw mix (now think maybe 3 cups would have worked better) and a sharp Cheddar cheese. After I cut dough into wedges I used rolling pin to squish them down but wish I had flattened them even more so I had more area to put filling on. After dh and I sampled for lunch, I froze the rest for our next camping trip--they will be a great lunch for hike. Thank you FloridaNative for a great recipe. Made for Football Pool.
