Bacon and Beef Rouladen Rollups

Ingredients

• 12 slices of Rouladen meat (approximately 1kg,)
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 12 baby dill pickles, thinly sliced lengthwise
• 1/4 cup mustard
• 12 slices of bacon
• 2 tbsp oil
• 1/3 cup red wine
• 2 tbsp brown gravy mix

Directions

1. 1. Unroll rouladen meat on a large surface. Add 1 bacon slice, lengthwise, and add pickles and onions liberally to cover and squirt with mustard, to taste.
2. 2. Fold ends in, and roll tightly into a cigar-shape. Use butcher�s twine (or toothpicks) to hold together. Continue with remaining slices of meat.
3. 3. Add oil to large shallow pan and heat over medium-high heat. Then brown each rouladen on each side. You may need to remove the finished rouladen to make room for others. Once all are browned, return to pan and add wine. Cover and braise in oven at 300F for 50-90 minutes.
4. 4. On stovetop, remove strings or toothpicks from rouladen and set on platter. Thicken juices with gravy mix and pour overtop.

Enjoy!
