Rouladin is a German staple composed of thinly sliced beef that is stuffed with a mixture of bacon and onions, then rolled and braised until tender. The dish originated in eastern Europe in the early 19th century and was made popular in Germany by the famous Chancellor of the late 1800s, Otto von Bismarck. Today, it is enjoyed by millions around the world and has become a favorite among those who enjoy hearty, comfort food during the cooler seasons.
