Summertime grilled beef braciole

Beef second courses Italian cuisine

Grill

Braciole is a stuffed rolled beef steak braised in an Italian tomato sauce. Growing up, it was always served for special Italian gatherings. My mom and grandmother, always kitchen partners, made individual meatball sized braciole, I prefer keeping mine in one large roll and then presenting it sliced and arranged on a sauced platter. I’ve tweaked the braciole recipe I knew growing up many times over and this rendition, BBQ, is my favorite; I enjoy grilling it and serving it sliced, topped with a fresh Italian salsa. BTW, on occasion I’ve braised braciole outdoors; simply grill the rolled meat to brown, and then simmer it over indirect heat, but for BBQ, grilled is my favorite. Grilled braciole promises a delicious, smoky summertime feast!
