BIEROCKS GERMAN HAMBURGER AND CABBAGE FILLED BUNS



Bierocks German hamburger and cabbage filled buns image

Both grandmothers used to make these and it seemed that they could never make enough of them. They are great fresh from the oven and on the rare occurrence that there were leftovers, we enjoyed them cold. The same was said when we served them at the restaurant! Enjoy.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

FILLING INGREDIENTS
4 c cabbage, chopped into about 1/4 inch bites
1/2 c onions, diced
2 Tbsp oil
1 lb hamburger
salt and pepper to taste
DOUGH INGREDIENTS
4 1/3 c all purpose flour
1 pkg active dry yeast
1 c milk
1/3 c sugar
1/3 c butter
1 tsp salt
2 eggs

Steps:

  • 1. FILLING: In a large frying pan, cook the cabbage and onion together until the cabbage is completely softened and golden. ** This process can be hastened by adding a half-cup of water (or so) and covering the pan, but eventually cook all the liquid off before proceeding.
  • 2. Season with salt and pepper.
  • 3. In a separate pan, brown the hamburger and drain. ** Season with salt and pepper.
  • 4. Mix the cabbage/onion with the hamburger thoroughly. ** You may complete this part of the recipe in advance, refrigerating until needed, or just before you are ready to assemble the rolls.
  • 5. DOUGH: In a large mixing bowl combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast.
  • 6. In a saucepan heat milk, sugar, butter and salt just till warm (115-120 degrees F) and butter is almost melted; stir constantly.
  • 7. Add to flour mixture; add eggs.
  • 8. Beat at low speed for 1/2 minute, then three minutes at high speed.
  • 9. Stir in as much remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon.
  • 10. Turn out onto a floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total).
  • 11. Shape into a ball, and place in a greased bowl; turn once. Cover and let rise in a warm place till double (about 1 hour). Punch down and cover; let rest 10 minutes.
  • 12. ASSEMBLY: Roll out the dough into a large rectangle, and a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
  • 13. Cut into squares of 3 inches by 3 or 4 inches by 4.
  • 14. By the spoonful, place some filling mixture into the center of each square, apportioning all of the mixture among the squares.
  • 15. For each, bring the two opposite corner ends of the dough square up to meet one another, then do the same with remaining ends and pinch them (all 4) together with your fingers.
  • 16. You will see that you now have open slits along the diagnals; pinch these together as well, making a seam of each. ** Water on your fingertips will facilitate them staying"glued" together.
  • 17. The end product should be a square with a seam running from each corner to the center where all four are joined.
  • 18. Set the squares on a baking sheet (if you had trouble keeping the seams closed, you can flip them over so that the seams are against the baking sheet, thereby keeping all the filling in place and making a nicer presentation).
  • 19. Let raise 30 minutes. ** Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 °F for 30 minutes or until golden brown. When removing from the oven brush each bun with melted butter.

BIEROCKS (GERMAN HAMBURGER- AND CABBAGE-FILLED ROLLS)



Bierocks (German Hamburger- and Cabbage-filled rolls) image

This is a staple food in the small Kansas (primarily German-American) town where I was born, and is now a favorite at my house here in Belgium. The recipe comes from my Grandma Rosie. My mother uses a BOX OF HOT ROLL MIX for the roll portion, but as that is not available to me, I have included the hot roll recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook book. Your yield will depend on the size of rolls you make, but I would estimate about 15 to 20. Preparation time includes time for allowing dough to rise (estimated). Don't let the length of the recipe (or my assembly instructions) spook you, it is really very easy and the assembly is fun for kids, too ! In my opinion they are just as tasty cold as warm from the oven.

HOMEMADE BIEROCKS RECIPE



Homemade Bierocks Recipe image

Bierocks are a famous German dish consisting of ground hamburger, cabbage, and onion all encased in a sweet bread roll. The combination is amazing!

Provided by Joanna Stephens

Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 package active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups warm water
1 cup milk
1/2 cup salted butter (melted)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
10 cups all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp butter
1 onion
4 cups shredded cabbage
2 pounds ground beef
2 tsp salt
2 tsp pepper
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • The first thing you will do is add yeast to your large mixing bowl. Then you will add in your warm water. Whisk these together for about 10 seconds and then let it sit for 10 minutes until it looks frothy.
  • Then you will want to microwave the milk for 20-30 seconds or until it feels warm. Also, you will want to melt your butter and then let it set.
  • When the water and yeast are frothy, you will add in the warm milk and melted butter. Mix this for about a minute.
  • Then, add in your sugar and eggs. After this has been mixed well, you will begin adding flour.
  • Start by adding in 1 cup at a time. When the bierock dough starts getting thicker, switch to your dough hook. Keep adding in all the flour until you have used up the 10 cups.
  • Then, you will want to scoop this dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 2 minutes. Form it into a ball and place it in a well-oiled bowl.
  • Cover the dough, and let it rise in a warm location of your house for about 1 hour.You can then work on the bierocks filling.
  • Start by chopping up your onion and cabbage. You will want to place butter into a large frying pan and then add in the shredded onion and cabbage. Let this cook for 6-7 minutes stirring often.
  • Next, you will want to cook your hamburger and then drain the grease.
  • In a large mixing bowl, you will combine the hamburger, cabbage, onion, and salt and pepper. This will make a traditional bierock filling.
  • What I like to do is also add in some shredded cheddar cheese! This step is certainly optional, but if you like cheese, I definitely recommend it. You will mix all of this together.
  • When the dough has risen for the full 1 hour, you will then separate out the dough into 18 balls of dough. Roll them each out on a floured surface.
  • Then, pre-heat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.Next, scoop approximately 1/2 cup of the bierocks filling into the dough. Then fold the dough around the filling, pinching it closed.
  • Then place it on a cookie sheet with parchment paper, seam side down. You will then bake these bierocks for 30 minutes. Make sure to rotate the pan half-way through cooking time.
  • Another optional, but equally tasty thing you can do is brush the tops with melted butter!

BIEROCKS GERMAN HAMBURGER AND CABBAGE-FILLED BUNS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Bierocks German Hamburger and Cabbage-Filled Buns Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by lindaauman

Number Of Ingredients 14

FILLING INGREDIENTS
4 c cabbage, chopped into about 1/4 inch bites
1/2 c onions, diced
2 Tbsp oil
1 lb hamburger
salt and pepper to taste
DOUGH INGREDIENTS
4 1/3 c all purpose flour
1 pkg active dry yeast
1 c milk
1/3 c sugar
1/3 c butter
1 tsp salt
2 eggs

Steps:

  • FILLING: In a large frying pan, cook the cabbage and onion together until the cabbage is completely softened and golden. Season with salt and pepper. In a separate pan, brown the hamburger and drain. ** Season with salt and pepper. Mix the cabbage/onion with the hamburger thoroughly. ** You may complete this part of the recipe in advance, refrigerating until needed, or just before you are ready to assemble the rolls. DOUGH: In a large mixing bowl combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast. In a saucepan heat milk, sugar, butter and salt just till warm (115-120 degrees F) and butter is almost melted; stir constantly. Add to flour mixture; add eggs. Beat at low speed for 1/2 minute, then three minutes at high speed. Stir in as much remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon. Turn out onto a floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total). Shape into a ball, and place in a greased bowl; turn once. Cover and let rise in a warm place till double (about 1 hour). Punch down and cover; let rest 10 minutes. ASSEMBLY: Roll out the dough into a large rectangle, and a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Cut into squares of 3 inches by 3 or 4 inches by 4. By the spoonful, place some filling mixture into the center of each square, apportioning all of the mixture among the squares. For each, bring the two opposite corner ends of the dough square up to meet one another, then do the same with remaining ends and pinch them (all 4) together with your fingers. You will see that you now have open slits along the diagonals; pinch these together as well, making a seam of each. ** Water on your fingertips will facilitate them staying"glued" together. The end product should be a square with a seam running from each corner to the center where all four are joined. Set the squares on a baking sheet (if you had trouble keeping the seams closed, you can flip them over so that the seams are against the baking sheet, thereby keeping all the filling in place and making a nicer presentation). Let rise 30 minutes. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 °F for 30 minutes or until golden brown. When removing from the oven brush each bun with melted butter.
