Beef Roll ups with gravy.

  


Beef Rollups (Rouladen)

Slices of sirloin wrapped around bacon and pickle with gravy made from the renderings. These are DELICIOUS. This is a recipe from my Mom that has been in her family for generations. The cooking process yields a tender, juicy beef rollup. My favorite food!

Ingredients

  • 12 1/4 inch thick sirloin slices (have butcher cut for you)
  • 12 wooden kabob skewers
  • 12 kosher dill pickle sandwich slices
  • 2 tablespoons pickle juice
  • 3 slices of bacon
  • 1 jar plain American mustard
  • 3 tbl. canola oil
  • 1 worchestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 cups hot water
  • 1 Heavy deep skillet with good fitting lid

Preparation

Cut bacon slices in 1/2 and then cut lengthwise in 1/2 (1 slice will yield 4 slices)

Cut kosher dill pickle sandwich slices into approximately 1/8" slices and cut those slices into 1/4" strips

Spread each slice of sirloin with a thin layer of mustard

On one end of the sirloin slice place 1 bacon strip and 1 pickle strip

Roll up and push the skewer through to hold the meat together, trim the skewer as needed.

Heat oil until very hot and add the rollups with tongs to the pan

Brown on all sides

Drizzle worchestershire sauce on each rollup (it will sizzle and smoke)

Immediately pour in enough hot water to come 1/2 way up the rollups

Put on the lid and turn down to low and cook until the water is almost gone

Add more hot water and let that cook down so you have about 2 1/2 cups of gravy

Remove the rollups to make the gravy, retain liquid from cooking in the skillet

Add 2 tablespoons pickle juice, 1 tablespoon mustard and the cream

Start with 1/4 cup of cream and add more if you like

Salt and pepper to taste

Serve with german potato salad, or mashed potatoes (see my "Turnip your mashed potatoes" recipe)
