This recipe is an old-world Italian favorite that we can't get enough of! Once you taste our Italian Beef Rollups, you'll see why this is one of our favorites. Don't be intimidated by the phrase "rollups"; this dish is super easy to make, even though it looks and tastes like it came out of a restaurant in the heart of the Naples, Italy. Let's eat!
What You'll Need
- 1 cup Italian-flavored bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
- 1/4 pound Genoa or other salami, finely chopped
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 thin top sirloin steaks, cut in half (about 1-1/2 pounds)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 (24-ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
What to Do
- In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, cheese, salami, eggs, and pepper; mix well. Spread mixture evenly over the top of each steak; roll up jelly-roll style and secure each with a toothpick.
- In a soup pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat and brown beef rolls 6 minutes, turning to brown on all sides. Reduce heat to low and add spaghetti sauce; cover and simmer 35 to 40 minutes, or until beef is tender. Remove toothpicks before serving.

This is Italian Braciole. I've made them many times. The recipe just says "eggs". You use hard boiled eggs, chopped or sliced, NOT RAW EGGS. Also needs to simmer in the sauce at least an hour unless you're using super tender steak. We tied them together with string.

This is Braciole, my grandma and my mom made it but without the salami. Tasty addition, though!

This sounds really good. I would think you could add anything to the inside of it. Like spinach, cheese or another type of chopped meat.

First you need to sprinkle meat tenderizer on the steak. It'll melt in your mouth.

You need to simmer it, covered in the sauce for a lot longer than the recipe calls for unless you use a tender cut of beef. My grandma had it simmering about an hour.

Great idea to add the Genoa! I've made these for years using boneless pork loin which is often on sale and gives the sauce a lovely flavor. Thanks!
