Easy German Bierocks Runza Recipes

Steps:

• Thaw out frozen bread dough; cut each roll into 3 pieces and set aside. Brown beef and cabbage in a large skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Roll out bread dough and cut into squares. Place a spoonful of the beef/cabbage mixture onto the center of each dough square. Sprinkle cheese on top, fold over and pinch sides to seal. Rub a bit of oil on the outside of each pastry.
• Place in a 9x13 inch baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until golden brown.

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).

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in ground beef, and cook until crumbly and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped onion, and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes more. Add the chopped cabbage; cook and stir until the cabbage has softened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then spread the mixture onto a baking sheet to cool until cool enough to handle.
• Once the mixture has cooled, flatten a dinner roll, and place several tablespoons of the cabbage mixture in the center. Pull the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or electric skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fry bierocks a few at a time in the preheated oil on both sides until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes; drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• 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.
