These were okay to me but my bf loved them. Very tender, but need some added flavor to me.

They were pretty tasty...but they needed something. My fiance added BBQ sauce. I might try adding something to the recipe next time.

Beef and bacon is almost a no-brainer that it's good together, but I'm not sure I really expected it to be this good. The bacon is nice and soft, and keeps the meat tender as can be (esp. if you use Sirloin as recommended). I have to say, if you're doing these in a pan you probably don't need much butter at all except to keep the pan from searing and smoking. The bacon grease will do most of your work. However, I actually preferred doing these on the grill - no butter, just great grill flavor! Sprinkle some salt/pepper on them for even more kick.

These were quite good. I clarified the butter as suggested by another reviewer. I also only used a/b 1/3 cup. After I cooked them, I removed them & added 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar to the sauce in the pan and 3 tbs. brown sugar, and reduced it to a nice glaze, then ladled it over the beef rolls. Everyone enjoyed it and my husband said it's a "make again".

Good idea, but bad technique. The rolls were really greasy and the bacon was soft. After cooking as described in the recipe, I would use only 1 Tablespoon of butter, you would need to put these rolls under a broiler to crisp or brown up.

Glorified pigs in a blanket! These tasted pretty good, although it took a LONG time. Just because of time restraints, this definitely won't be an "after-work" weeknight recipe... but I might make them again sometime in the future. My husband enjoyed them more than I did, so maybe it's just a guy thing. Beef and bacon! LOL I had a little bit of a hard time keeping the temperature low enough to just simmer. The butter kept boiling no matter how low I put it. I finally had to remove it from the burner completely for around 10 minutes to let it cool down and then return it to lowest heat setting for the duration. I added some chopped garlic to the butter and onions. About halfway through the simmering, I added a little chopped piece of garlic to the top of each roll. This gave it a little bit of extra flavor. (I also salt and peppered to taste)

We are divided on this one. My husband loved it. I hated it. The beef tasted a lot like pot roast, which is ok, but not what I had expected. The bacon was awful. It was soft, but not chewy. I can't describe it, but I thought the texture of the bacon was disgusting. I did like the onions. I put them in the food processor when done and they made a nice gravy. I will not eat this again, but I know my husband will be asking me to make it. I give it 2 stars, he gives it 5.
