Description

Soft, golden buns filled with savory ground beef, cabbage, and onions—bierocks are the ultimate hand-held comfort food, perfect for freezing, meal prep, or sharing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 3/4 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a skillet, cook ground beef until browned. Add onion, garlic, cabbage, salt, and pepper. Sauté until cabbage is tender. Set aside to cool.
  3. In a bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in melted butter, egg, and flour. Knead until smooth. Let rise 1 hour.
  4. Divide dough into balls. Roll each into a circle and fill with beef mixture. Fold and pinch to seal.
  5. Place seam-side down on baking sheet. Let rest 10 minutes.
  6. Bake 18–22 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Brush with butter and serve warm.

Notes

  • Cool the filling before wrapping to prevent soggy dough.
  • Brush with melted butter for softness and shine.
  • Great for freezing—bake from frozen with a few extra minutes.
