    Title: Stuffed Cabbage
    Categories: Beef, Cabbage, Stuffed veg
    Yield: 12 Servings

    1 lg Cabbage
    3 lb Ground beef
    1 lg Onion; diced small
    1 Egg
    1 c Minute Rice
    1 oz A-1 steak sauce
    2 tb Heinz 57 sauce
    2 tb Ketchup
    28 oz Can sauerkraut
    1 ts Salt
    56 oz Crushed tomatoes (2 cans)

    Preheat oven to 350?F.

    Remove core from head of cabbage. Place in a large pot, add enough
    water to cover head. Remove cabbage, season water with salt to taste,
    and bring to a boil.

    While the water is heating, mix ground beef, onion, eggs, and rice.
    Mix well. Add A-1 sauce, Heinz sauce, and ketchup, mix with hands
    until blended.

    When water boils, add cabbage head carefully. Cook until outer leaves
    loosen. Remove loose leaves to a jelly roll pan to cool as they become
    soft. Do not overcook! Repeat until all leaves are removed. Cut tough
    center stalk from each leaf.

    Starting with large leaf, lay out on flat surface. Take a fistful of
    the ground beef mixture and place in the middle of leaf. Roll up,
    tucking in sides. Repeat until you have filled a roasting pan. I use
    a very large roasting pan and make rolls until I run out of meat or
    cabbage. Cover cabbage rolls evenly with sauerkraut, and cover all
    with crushed tomatoes. Cover roasting pan and bake for approximately
    2 hours.

    I make these in a big batch as they freeze well and we have extra
    meals. Also for convenience, I put two to a ziploc bag and freeze. A
    quick lunch!

    Suggestions:

    If you run out of meat and have cabbage left: Put cabbage in a small
    saucepan, cover with water, add onion, and pepper. Cook until tender.

    If you have ground beef left: Roll into meatballs, lay on top of the
    tomatoes in roasting pan and cook or saute in small flying pan until
    done. Store in plastic ziploc bag for later quick meal. Can be
    frozen. In a small saucepan, add 1 tb oil. Add thawed meatballs. Open
    can of cream of mushroom soup, add to saucepan. Add a little water to
    make gravy. I use a couple of drops of Kitchen Bouquet Browning &
    Seasoning sauce to get it to a nice brown color. Simmer for 15 to 20
    minutes. Serve with almost anything!

    Dunno. Ask Shawn Highfield.

    I'll withhold comment.

    I understand. I told him (via e-mail) to chill

    Being a moderaroe is a thankless gig.

    It is, especially in today's Fidonet and the lack of respect for the rules, especially from some in Zone 2.

    Title: Dirty Dave's Spicy Meatballs
    Categories: Five, Pork, Cheese, Breads, Vegetables
    Yield: 24 Meatballs

    2 lb Hot Italian sausage
    1/2 c Bread crumbs
    1/2 c Thin sliced green onions
    4 tb Grated Parmesan or Asiago
    2 lg Eggs

    In medium bowl, add sausage, bread crumbs, onions,
    cheese and egg. Mix thoroughly.

    Shape into 24 meatballs.

    Cook over med-low heat, turning frequently, until brown.

    Or, you can bake them @ 350ºF/175ºC for 35 or so minutes
    until cooked through. A wire rack over a sheet pan lets
    the grease drip away if you're averse to all the yummy
    fat.

    Serves 6 with pasta and red gravy

    Also makes scrumptious meatball subs using 6" (15cm)
    "hoagie" rolls w/marinara and some mozzarella cheese.
