Bò Lá Lốt | Bò Lá Tía Tô | Vietnamese Grilled Beef Wrapped in Wild Betel / Perilla / Grape Leaves

One of the best parts about coming home for the holidays is my mom's home cooking. Here is mom making one of my favorite dishes, a popular southern Vietnamese street food in "Momma's Big Kitchen".
1 pound fatty ground beef
1/4 cup pork fat trimmings
(No pork fat? Use 10 oz ground beef + 6 oz ground pork)
1/2 diced red onion or 1 shallot
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbsp oyster sauce
1 Tbsp mushroom seasoning/chicken bouillon
1 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp olive oil
35-40 large perilla leaves (lá tía tô), grape leaves (lá nho), or wild betel leaves/pipe lolot (lá lốt)
Variations: You can add a couple Tbsp lemongrass, crushed peanuts, or a tsp of five spice seasoning to the filling
Makes about 35-40 rolls
