Being from Nebraska, can confirm you nailed it. My personal favorite is the mushroom Swiss runza. Talking about relentless comments, there’s a guy on Twitter that tweets, “release the breakfast runza with hasbrowns” to every single Runza Tweet. That’s been going on for the last couple years.
As a Nebraskan you did far better with these to emulate the "restaurant" version than any other creator I have seen put their spin on it. The bread and bake looks spot on. The sauce of choice locally would be a homemade ranch. The cheese and brisket sound like an amazing combo. They are known to protect their name, so watch your back from those C&D''s.
Lincoln boy here, and I do love me some Runza! Also, you'll sometimes find these called bierocks or something to that effect in old German towns and bars.
I can't LIKE this video more!!! As a former Nebraska resident, now a Southern Mo resident.....RUNZA's were a big part of my diet. Anything can be put inside the dough.... I've made breakfast RUNZA's (Sausage, Egg, Jalapeno, Cheese) Pizza RUNZA's, and obviously the traditional ground lamb, cabbage, onion, spices.... Thanks Brad for bring a slice of the heartland to your viewers!
Being from Nebraska, and a Runza lover, you nailed this. They look exactly like one you get from the restaurant. They have several different variations available as well such as Swiss mushroom, bacon cheeseburger, and spicy bacon and jack. We also have a pretty big Czech population here in Nebraska and love kolaches as well.
I know you have done many brisket vids along with all the other millions of brisket vids on YT but for some reason this stands out as the best one to me. Well done!!!
3 things. 1, Your Joe Yim intro gets me every time. 2, I thought Runza was from another country too. 3, love the toast at the end of your recent videos. I cheers ya with some Sagamore.
Runza's originally are from the Volga German population before they came into the region. These were German immigrants who settled around the Volga River in Russia. So technically you are correct, it came from another county.
I love this channel even more now ! Thanks Bradley (and Fernando ) Living in Florida now, and I sure miss Runza. You rocked this and I’ll be making this real soon. Go Big Red !!!!!!
Come from the mountains of South West Virginia, and damn proud! One old time cooking addition that is hard to find these days is smoked seasoning meats. We used to have smoked neck bones, pork or beef, ox tails, hocks, and whatever non eatable was left over. Used in beans of all sorts, greens, gravy, soups stews, and on... Usually what is found in the stores these days sucks! Point is, not cooked for the meat or stock pot, but smoked and persevered as a seasoning for other dishes. Like to see a yankee view on this. Thank-you!
As a Nebraskan I approve. My mother-in-law and her sister used to get together and make them by the dozens and send them home with everyone, delicious. Lots of folks that 'dont like cabbage' will destry a runza!...oh, their fries are top shelf as well! My favorite is the classic cheese runza.
I make these with biscuit dough, but I refrigerate the mixture and fill the dough with the cold mixture. That helps the moisture content of the filling.
I have been watching you since the beginning , wow how far you have come ! Allot of hard work I am sure 👍 Love watching your vids ! I love the way your included the guys at the shop this time 😊
Brad thank you for taking on the runza. Truly it is a bierock, but the namesake comes from the restaurant chain. Really need to try it with a good potent kraut. As the chain does, pairs well with crinkle cut fries.
I've not heard of this thing before BUT where I'm from, Cornwall UK, hundreds of years ago we had a HUGE population exodus to various mining communities across the world. And our home food: the Pasty, was one of our culinary exports. This looks exceptionally similar to the pasty: a short crust pie with a very thick pastry seam across the side, so that miners and fishermen could eat the pie with dirty hands by holding it by the crust and they would throw it away after. The filling would consist of cheap cuts of beef (usually finely chopped skirt steak), potato, onion and swede (turnip). Heavily seasoned with course salt and black pepper. Many variations of the pasty exist across the world, including Australia, USA (Boulder, Colorado) Mexico (empanadas).
Yo!!! Brad shows some representation to Nebraska!! Had a Runza today and saw this video! You come up here, I will be your guide to the Runza experience!
I made it today. The bread is excellent. I substituted heavy cream for the water. I also made it with sourcrout. The taste was super mild. Will I make it again? Hell yes! I am going to make the bread again for biscuits and gravy. Very good bread! Oh yeah, I added 2 tsp of home rendered beef tallow to it also.
Heck yeah. Ya should make these again but with some Texas flavor. Some cheese filled jalapeños surrounded by chopped up crispy chicken thighs cooked direct heat on the Chud box😊
Thank You!! FINALLY somebody on the #BBQTube trims a big & Tall brisket! I feel like 75% of the briskets I've ever bought have looked like this and it seems like the BBQ TH-camrs Never have these!
A silver fish-slice in the tool roll Mister Chudley R? What in the afternoon-teacake is that doing there. Snakes in your boot and pesky little High Tea utensils in your rollup. What a time to be alive.
Nicely done guys, gonna have to make some, my great aunt worked at the original Runza in Lincoln Nebraska. So I happen to have the original recipe! I eat Runza weekly
Beef Cheek Runza!!!! Great channel by the way definitely inspires me and help me cook even better. Smoked Chuck roast tomorrow I think (treat it like a brisket).
In France there’s a VERY common street food called an American sandwich. A baguette sliced lengthwise, Dijon mustard and mayo down each side, filled with fries and two burger patties sliced in half. Sounds basic bitch but it’s amazing
Knife roll surprise: cake shovel, pie knife, crépe spade, quiche trowel, pie-getter, pie lifter, pie spatula, cake knife, or cake slicer... Depending on which are of the country one is located! HAHA!
Hell yeah. You nailed this.The kraut really would have taken it up a notch too. Maybe a reuben runza with the kraut. Greek lamb shank runza. I'm gonna say it... icelandic cod liver runza. For bones.
We call them Bierrocks and do them more round than long, but you nailed it. My struggle has been finding the perfect dipping sauce. I usually do a sort of fry sauce, but I kinda want to try an au jus or dark beef gravy.
I could never figure out why Runza didn't catch on outside my home state. Not only do they have Runza, they also have the best fries. AND they have the best ranch dressing to dip the fries. Not sure what's in the secret seasoning they use, but it's got some heat to it. And probably whatever spices are typical of Eastern Europe, so maybe some Hungarian paprika.
Ya, that's definitely a bierock! Runza and german bierocks are the same thing. Except replacing hamburger with brisket. Nebraska has a Volga German community up there. I'm from Hays Kansas. Which is also Volga German community. There is another Volga German community in panhandle Texas and in North Dakota. I'm one of those Volga Germans.
Bradley, Nebraska meets Texas bbq! Persistency pays off for the runza request! What is he going to request now? Your knife work is perfect! You should teach surgeons. Hope you and the Chud shop are safe from the Texas fires! Can you do a collab video with Dolly Parton singing Joe Yim? Maybe if I request it non-stop for a year!😂 The funny thing is that Dolly is so friendly she probably would agree to do it!👍
As a Nebraskan abroad, this is a wholesome video. Sadly the last time I had these in 2018, the location was unfortunately staffed with *very low quality employees* and the runzas were awful and my dad actually got bad food poisoning from his cheese runzas. Sad, but hiring practices and things change.
Hell yeah
Runza!
Cheers from BC Canada Fernando!
Nebraska native???
This one's for you Fernando! Nicely done.
@@smiffyOGwhere in BC? I'm in Victoria!
Thanks for the shout out, guys! Glad you liked the bourbon!. Love all the videos! Saved my ass a few times over...
and Kudos on the name pronunciation... nailed it!

Thank you for showing the world what us Nebraskans have known for ages; Nothing beats a Runza!
Leap Day = Fernando's Day. Runza! (Great content, as always.)
NICE shoutout to the Midwest, Brad!!!!

In the Texas hill county lots of Germans and Czech
Nice Work.

You also need the runny ranch as a sauce! Otherwise this video made me proud to be a Nebraskan! Lol
That trim is glorious.
I was literally about to comment this. It is absolutely picturesque
Thank you for doing Nebraska proud. They look spot on.
I think that lost bottle would have made a perfect rolling pin 😂
Every time Joe shows up I'm singing Jolene for at least two days in the back of my mind.
Pulled pork and bacon bits Runza. With a shit load of Tillamook Extra sharp cheddar. That sounds pretty damn good.
make some pastrami and make a reuben runza
Nicely done! Being from Nebraska, I’ve had quite a few Runzas and you did them justice. 👌
If this wasnt a leap year you would have rekeaed this video on Nebraska's statehood day!
Love me some runza!
The world needs a Runza sausage.
As a native Nebraskan, I support this video!
Bones slicing a piece off with a knife is giving strong “office donuts with 16 different leftover stale slivers” vibes.
I know you have done many brisket vids along with all the other millions of brisket vids on YT but for some reason this stands out as the best one to me. Well done!!!
As a Lincolnite who recently moved I have been craving Runza like nothing else. They look perfect and I bet they taste amazing!
You know you can order Runzas from the restaurant and they will ship them. All you have to do is cook in the oven.
3 things. 1, Your Joe Yim intro gets me every time. 2, I thought Runza was from another country too. 3, love the toast at the end of your recent videos. I cheers ya with some Sagamore.

The Mushroom Swiss is the best Runza!
I love the Joe Lim take on Jolene 😂
That curve cut to shape the brisket....
That was a thing of beauty.
You made this Nebraska guy very happy

Peep the Mad Scientist rubs on the rub wall 🧐 great cook Brad!
Chud Shop sells them.
Fantastic video!! Thanks for making! These looked so good!
My mom made bierocks all the time when I was a kid. Now I want one. Looks delicious
Every time you're at the Chud shop i'm always keeping an eye out to spot the mugs or the clock i made ya lol. Keep up the awesome content brother!
I make these with biscuit dough, but I refrigerate the mixture and fill the dough with the cold mixture. That helps the moisture content of the filling.
Runza, Who knew?! Looked really good and soo many options. Great cook Brad... Thanks
I have been watching you since the beginning , wow how far you have come ! Allot of hard work I am sure 👍 Love watching your vids ! I love the way your included the guys at the shop this time 😊
Nailed it. I LOVE 💓 RUNZAs.

That was a glorious brisket we all dream of getting. Gonna do this one for sure.
YO! YEES! Nebraska born and raised, checking in✅
Bradley……fun to watch your channel. Thanks for what you do. 👍🏻😎🔥
That looks awesome.. i got to try that out
Love me some Runza, can’t wait to make these Brisket runza’s!

Those look spectacular! Dude, with a name like Chuds and all the BBQ you eat, your house has to smell like a truck stop restroom.... lol.
That looks mighty tasty Bradley, I’m gonna have to give this a go
GO BIG RUNZA!
That looks pretty tasty!
Looks like you have a good following from Nebraska. The only place to get a real Runza. I would definitely make this with brisket.
Thank You!! FINALLY somebody on the #BBQTube trims a big & Tall brisket! I feel like 75% of the briskets I've ever bought have looked like this and it seems like the BBQ TH-camrs Never have these!
We knew, but we live in Nebraska, and my wife Loves Runza!!!

There is (or at least was) a restaurant chain in Colorado called Runza Drive In. Good stuff, many varieties.
Nicely done guys, gonna have to make some, my great aunt worked at the original Runza in Lincoln Nebraska. So I happen to have the original recipe! I eat Runza weekly

It's a bierock folks. (Kansas checking in)
Very nice, Bradley.
Awesome
Brad, try using an oversized cupcake pan to firm your runzas. Great idea for runzas,I'll definitely give this a try
Awesome. We live about 2 miles from where the original Runza restaurant was located.
Gotta try that.
Omg. Yes!!!!
As a southerner, I've never heard of this in my life
Runza is fast food chain predominantly in Nebraska, sandwich also called a Runza. The sandwich is a bierock, of German origin.
Looks amazing!
Chopped lamb or goat with pinenuts & middle eastern spices might be worth a shot..
Like a Lebanese meat pie.
In the honor of St. PADDYS day, how about doing some smoked corned beef?
We call them Bierrocks and do them more round than long, but you nailed it. My struggle has been finding the perfect dipping sauce. I usually do a sort of fry sauce, but I kinda want to try an au jus or dark beef gravy.
Brisket empanada ❤️

Chicken bacon ranch. Great video
I have never heard of Runza but I need one>
Would love to see your take on Biltong
Ya, that's definitely a bierock! Runza and german bierocks are the same thing. Except replacing hamburger with brisket. Nebraska has a Volga German community up there. I'm from Hays Kansas.

For the algorithms bay bay!!!
Chorizo Runza? Yes please
Mr. Brad! Can you please do a side-by-side comparison of your usual brisket with a second brisket that is fully injected with wagyu beef tallow?
My man had the tech decks 🛹
Would love to see a classic English style sausage roll
would love to see your take on a South African boerwors.
That would go great with some All Dressed potato chips!
Bradley,
Nebraska meets Texas bbq! Persistency pays off for the runza request! What is he going to request now?

Better trim than your older videos
Can see why you picked out that brisket. Lovely example
Ideas for runza... carnitas, shredded chicken, loaded potato, szechuan anything... venison... I dare you to make squirrel runza 😂
Also I've seen both egg and water used to seal a pastry together which is better or what's the reasoning behind each
