As promised about a month and a half ago, here is my grandmother’s BBQ hamburger recipe.
What I said in January…
When I saw the pic above of the Polish-American style BBQ hamburger, it made me think of my Babcia/Busia and how that burger was served up on many family events in B-F over the years. As the writer of the blog points out, it is not BBQ’d at all…but hey, we are Polish and we come up with our own stuff and names for things.
I have made similar BBQ hamburgers over the years, but never could get it quite the way my Babcia/Busia did…the only person to come close is my mother…I may just whip up a batch soon. A few years ago, my mother put together a family recipe book for me and my brothers.
Equally important to my Polish heritage is my Polish American heritage…the things my ancestors did while building their lives in America as immigrants…it is an important story.

looks great…..anyone have a good recipe for ‘steak roll-ups’
One of the all time favorites at any gathering
Zraziki Po Krakowsku (Polish Beef Roll-Ups)
Ingredients:
2 pounds round steak
1 cup bread crumbs
1 onion, grated
1 egg, beaten
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
2 cups water
salt and pepper
Directions:
Cut steak into thin pieces, about 4 1/2 by 2 inches. Score, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Combine bread crumbs, egg, onion and 4 tbs of the melted butter, salt and pepper.
Spread the dressing on each piece of meat, roll up and fasten with a skewer or a toothpick.
Roll in flour and brown in remaining butter. Add 2 cups of water (meat stock if you have it) and simmer 1 1/2 hours.
Remove toothpicks. Pour gravy over meat. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with mashed potatoes.
What dressing were you referring to? Did you put it in a slowcooker or a cast iron pan? What temperature?
Thank you and God bless you!

The dressing he is referring to is the breadcrumbs and all the ingredients after that you make until like a stuffing ,dressing. That is what you spread on the meat roll it up and cook.
Yum!
