Steps

  1. In a large pot start your cabbage boil. Let boil for 30 minutes. You just want the leaves soft enough to pull off stem.

  2. Do not drain your cabbage water or pull out lemons! Pull cabbage out of pot onto a plate. Let cool.

  3. Begin pulling your leaves off the stem.

  4. Lay leaf down on flat surface and fill with the meat mixture. You can either fill them small of fill them big. I do medium. Now, roll them up like a burrito. Stick a couple tooth picks in it and make sure it doesn’t un roll.

  5. In your cabbage boil pot, add tomato juice or sauce. Toss in your cabbage rolls. Make sure it’s on medium heat.

  6. Add remaining meat and cabbage to pot (if you want.) Squirt lemon juice from half a lemon in pot. Boil covered for 2 hrs. Sprinkle some garlic powder on the top of the cabbage and add more worcestershire sauce if you want. Add parmesan to the top. Enjoy!
