Sliced meat found in Pole's case, bizarrely (9)

I believe the answer is:

escalopes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sliced meat found' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'pole's case bizarrely' is the wordplay.
'bizarrely' indicates anagramming the letters.
'poles'+'case'='polescase'
'polescase' anagrammed gives 'ESCALOPES'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for escalopes that I've seen before include "Boneless slices of meat" , "fillets" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
