Pam's Stuffed Bierocks feature pillowy, slightly sweet rolls wrapped around a mellow filling of seasoned ground beef, tender cabbage, and onions. The contrast of soft enriched dough and buttery, peppery juices makes each bite cozy and satisfying. Serve warm for a casual dinner, game day spread, or to pack for a hearty lunch on the go.

1

Lightly coat a medium bowl and a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Set them aside.
2

Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, stir together the warm water and yeast. Let it sit until creamy, about 10 minutes.
3

Add 1/2 of the flour, the sugar, margarine, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture. Beat until smooth; then add the remaining flour and mix by hand until the dough comes together. Transfer to the prepared medium bowl; cover with foil. Refrigerate for 2 hours to overnight, or let rise at room temperature for 1 hour.
4

While the dough rises, make the filling: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cabbage, onion, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, over medium-low heat until the cabbage is tender, about 30 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let it cool until lukewarm.
5

Punch down the dough and divide it into 20 equal pieces. Flatten and spread each piece on an unfloured surface; fill with about 2 tablespoons of filling. Fold the dough over and seal the edges. Place on the prepared baking sheet and let rise for 1 hour.
6

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
7

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Brush the tops with melted butter and serve warm.
