Garbage Bread

The most common name for this is Garbage Bread, but it is far from garbage! So, I simply do not use that title, and it has a few small changes from many other versions. That is the fun of recipes!

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ pound bacon cooked and crumbled
  • ½ yellow Onion diced
  • 1 tbsp Steak Seasoning or a Seasoned Salt
  • ½ cup Green onions chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups Cheddar Cheese shredded
  • 1 tube refrigerated French Loaf Dough, or pizza dough
  • 2 tbsp butter melted

Method
 

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 375*
    2. In a skillet on the stove over medium heat, fry the bacon until browned and crispy, remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat
    3. In the same skillet, crumble and brown the ground beef and the onion. Season with the Steak Seasoning
    4. Season with salt and pepper if desired
    5. Stir in the green onions and the crumbled bacon and stir to blend
    6. Open the tube of bread dough and roll the dough out to a rectangular shape
    7. Spread the beef mixture over the entire bread, leave a one inch border around the edges
    8. Top the beef mixture with the shredded cheese
    9. Starting at the long edges, roll the loaf of bread up into a roll or log shape, as tightly as you can
    10. Fold the edges of the roll under the loaf about ½ inch on both ends
    11. Place the roll on a baking sheet and brush the entire roll with melted butter
    12. Bake until golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes

Notes

What type of dough do you recommend?
I have used both French Bread dough and Pizza Dough. Both out of the can from the refrigerated section of my local store. I believe that I like French bread best.
Can I add ingredients to this recipe?
Certainly! If there is an additional ingredient that is not here, but your family loves, feel free to use it. For instance, with this recipe, I will generally add in some chopped pickles, or sweet relish.
