Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Skillet

Ingredients:  

Dough

  • 1 package active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

Filling

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 4 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Instructions: 

  • 1. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large mixing bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  • 2. Stir in sugar, melted butter, egg, and salt. Gradually add flour to form a soft dough.
  • 3. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • 4. In a skillet, cook ground beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Add cabbage, salt, and pepper. Cook until cabbage is tender. Drain any excess fat.
  • 5. Punch down dough and divide into 8 portions. Roll each portion into a 6-inch circle. Place about 1/2 cup of filling in the center of each circle. Fold dough over filling and pinch edges to seal.
  • 6. Place bierocks on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • 7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Notes:

These bierocks can be frozen and reheated for a quick meal later.
