For six, take two or two and one-half pounds round steak; cut into pieces about five inches long and three inches wide. Place on each piece a thin slice of bacon and of onion, salt and pepper. Roll tightly and tie with a cord, roll in flour, and fry quite brown in butter. When done, place the rolls of meat in another kettle, just cover with water, and let it come to a boil. Boil about ten minutes and then let simmer from one and one-half to two hours. Remove the meat and cut cord. Make gravy with the flour left in kettle, and strain before using. — Mary Melrose.
