This was great! I put mine in the corck pot, though. Turned out very tender and savory. Very easy to make.

Wonderful recipe. I used a dark German mustard to spread on the meat. I also did them in a crockpot - 4 1/2 hours on low they were tender and delicious. I added a tin of Veggie broth with garlic & onions already in it, then made a gravy out of the broth just before serving. Served with Spatzle, fried cabbage, new carrots & sugar peas - There were no complaints I can assure you Thanks Patty for a good recipe

Started with beef loin, butterflied. Put the bacon, onion and mustard on the loin and rolled it, securing it with skewers. Browned it in a cast iron pan, added a bit of water and a few bay leave, covered it with foil and baked it at 325 for a few hours. It was absolutely yummy! Thank you for posting. NOTE: The pickle was purposely omitted.
