"Posted for the Zaar World Tour-Germany.This recipe is from my German great-grandmother. I took these to my son's school for "Heritage Day" when he was young. The other students/parents were a little "apprehensive" to try them when they were told these rolls had pickles, onions, and mustard in them. Needless to say, they were a big hit and I didn't bring any leftovers home."

    Beef Rouladen is one of my favorite German recipes and this version is very good. Made as written with a couple minor adjustments, I used 2 cups of beef broth and added 1/2 cup red wine, so I could have plenty of sauce which I thickened with a cornstarch slurry. Wonderful flavor and oh so tender. Thanks for a superb meal. Made for your win in the 2011 football pool ~ Conference Championships Week.

    Loved, loved, loved this! This is just like my MIL makes hers. I omitted the salt due to other reviewers recommendations. The only other change I made was to use bacon fat instead of shortening. I served this with recipe #400 and my recipe #178923. Made a wonderful German meal. Thanks Bayhill for posting. Made for "I recommend" tag game.

    Really great beef rolls! I fried up the bacon and, instead of the shortening, used the leftover grease in which to fry the beef rolls and onions. I pounded the steaks to less than 1/4" thick, julienned slightly fewer pickle slices than called for, and reduced the sauce with a wine + Wondra (for flour) mixture at the end. The sauce was outstanding, but be careful with the use of salt as there's plenty "natural" salt from the other ingredients (bacon, pickles and beef stock). Thank you for posting this, Bayhill!
