Shredded Beef and Cheese Biscuit Rolls Recipe
Don’t forget to PIN it so you can make it later.
Start by making your biscuit dough or used premade dough.
Baking Powder Biscuits ( from Clabber Girl site)
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Clabber Girl Baking Powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shortening, margarine, or butter
- 2/3 cup milk
- Instructions:
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together flour, Clabber Girl Baking Powder, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening till mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in center; add milk all at once. Using a fork, stir just till moistened.
On a lightly floured surface, knead dough for 10 to 12 strokes or till the dough is nearly smooth.
For this recipe you will want to roll the dough out as thin as you can get it. Then top it with 2 cups of shredded beef and 2 cups of shredded cheese ( I used mexi-style). Leave one end topping free so when you roll it closed you can get a good seal on the end.
Start rolling into a roll ( kind of like Cinnamon rolls)
Use a sharp knife to cut into 1 inch segments.
Place into a greased baking dish. Bake at $450 degrees 12-16 minutes till edges have started to brown and middle is cooked well. Top with brown gravy and enjoy!
Mom always made these roast beef rolls. She would use her Kitchenaid grinder attachment and grind the left over roast beef. We then buttered the biscuit roll and added garlic powder on top of the butter before adding the roast beef. Also I cut my roll with dental floss. It is easier than squishing the roll with a knife.
This looks like it would be easy to freeze and send for lunch.
