This amazing beef rouladen is stuffed up with mustard, pickles, and onions and served with a delicious easy to make beef gravy. You will love how simple this is to prepare and just how flavorful it is.

Rouladen is a classical German recipe consisting of thinly sliced and pounded out beef that is stuffed with salt, pepper, mustard, bacon, onions, and pickles. You sear the beef and then simmer it in a flavorful beef sauce until it is tender.

This is a recipe I used to make at one of the restaurants I worked at when we had a lot of leftover chunks of meat. It’s easy to make and it really packs a punch in the flavor department, however, you will need to allow some time for them to cook in the oven.
