Ingredients
  • 1 lb "Round Steak" or 1lb "London Broil"
  • 1/2 cup bread crumbs (preferably "Progresso")
  • Fresh Parsley
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese (fresh grated recommended)
  • (3) cloves Fresh Garlic
  • Coarse Black Pepper and Salt
  • Salt Pork tastey fried crunchy bits

Directions
  1. When you go to your localbutcher to get the 1 lb "Round Steak" or 1 lb "London Broil" ask him to slice the meat up into 1/4" thin pieces.
  2. Take the meat slices and lay them out on wax paper.
  3. Now pound with a meat pounder .
  4. The pieces will end up larger when you're done pounding and you may have to cut them in half and do some trimming.
  5. You want to have pieces that are approximately 7"x3" and relatively rectangular in shape, sometimes when they slice the meat you may get some slices that come to a point, you will have to cut those ends off, it becomes a problem when you start to roll the meat up if one edge is a lot smaller than the other.
  6. chop fresh parsley, about 1/4 to 1/2 cup,
  7. grate some fresh Parmesan cheese, about 1/4 cup,
  8. chop 3 cloves of garlic as fine as you can.
  9. Sprinkle on the meat a little finely chopped fresh garlic (spread out the garlic with your fingers and try to press the garlic into the meat), add some bread crumbs, fresh parsley and fresh Parmesan .salt pocheese dash of salt and coarse black pepper
  10. Make sure it's evenly spread out on the meat.
  11. Roll up the meat as tight as you can and tie it up with some very strong thread or butchers twine... three pieces of string for each piece.
  12. tie it well enough to hold it all together.
  13. Make sure to leave long pieces of string hanging off the knot you make so you can find the string after cooking it.
  14. If you don't have strong thread, it will fall apart during the searing process.
  15. sear the meat in the very hot pan.
  16. Take them right from the frying pan into the sauce.
  17. Simmer in sauce for about an hour.
  18. Put pasta on platter mixed with a little sauce so it won't stick together
  19. Sauce in a bowl
  20. Braciole in bowl
  21. Grated cheese in bowl
  22. Serve piping hot

Our family loves Braciole! I've never made it with the salt pork, but plan to try that next time. This recipe can be time consuming, but the end result is well worth the effort!


Thank you for your comment.


I made this tonight and it turned out quite well. The only problem I could see was commented on by my mother - she said she couldn't really taste the filling, so I think next time, I'll put a bit more breadcrumbs and parmesan inside the roll. The meat did seem to overwhelm the filler a bit. But, I will make this again. The sauce was beyond excellent with the combined flavors of the sausage and the beef!!
