Ingredients
1 pound Top Round Beef (thinly sliced, 6 pieces)
6 cloves Garlic (4 sliced, 2 minced)
1⁄4 cup Parsley (chopped)
2 tablespoons Basil (chopped)
1⁄2 cup Parmesan (shredded)
2 tablespoons Seasoned Bread Crumbs
6 whole Prosciutto (sliced)
3 tablespoons Currants
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 cup Red Wine
1 cup Beef Broth
1 1⁄2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
15 ounces Crushed Tomatoes
  dash Salt
  dash Ground Black Pepper

Directions
  1. Place the slices of meat on a sheet of plastic wrap, then top with a second sheet. Pound the meat thin using a mallet or a rolling pin.
  2. Prepare the filling by combining the minced garlic, parsley, basil, parmesan, bread crumbs, and dash of salt and pepper, mixing well.
  3. Place a slice of prosciutto on each thinly pounded slice of beef. Cover the prosciutto evenly with the filling mixture. Then roll each piece up, securing with toothpicks.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet. Once the oil is hot, add the braciole and brown them evenly on all sides. Be careful not to disturb or spill the filling when you turn them.
  5. Carefully remove the browned braciole and place them in a slow cooker insert. Add the sliced garlic, red wine, beef broth, crushed tomatoes, and Italian seasoning, then mix well.
  6. Cook on high for 5 hours, turning the braciole occasionally.
