Submitted to Taste of Home by Lucile Proctor, whose daughter, after entering in a state 4-H beef cooking contest, won a trip to a national competition with the recipe. This is a fun recipe to make with the kids. Makes a great dinner with a green salad. I haven't tried making the dough in a bread machine but am sure it would work well, too.
