• Place remaining head back in the boiling water and repeat until you have at least 8 large cabbage leaves.
• (You can freeze cabbage then thaw and skip the boiling part. We just need the leaves soft enough to roll)
• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, uncooked rice, 1/4 cup tomato sauce, garlic powder, pepper, salt, onion.
• Stir in egg and combine well.
• Whisk together tomato sauce, paprika and Worcestershire sauce in another bowl.

EASY SLOW COOKER CABBAGE ROLL CASSEROLE

Drain off any excess grease and return the pan to the heat. Add the tomato sauce, water, and half of the tomato soup to the skillet. Mix well then stir in the rice. In the crock pot, layer half of the meat mixture then half of the shredded cabbage; repeat the layers. In a bowl, combine the remaining tomato soup with the tomato juice until blended.

STUFFED CABBAGE ROLLS (POLISH-STYLE GOłąBKI)

Steps:

• Fill a large stockpot two-thirds full of water and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Using a paring knife, remove the cabbage's core. Using large, sturdy tongs, carefully lower the cabbage into the pot, core side down and blanch.
• As the leaves loosen from the cabbage head, carefully remove them to a plate. Repeat until you have 12-14 large leaves.
• When you have removed all the cabbage leaves you want for rolling, return the individual leaves to the boiling water for one minute, until they are tender and flexible. Set aside.
• Pull or rough-chop any remaining cabbage leaves from head. You will use these to line the slow cooker.
• I like to use a paring knife to thin the stem end just a bit before I assemble the cabbage rolls. It makes rolling them a little easier, and the rolls turn out more uniform. You only need to do this step for leaves that you plan to use to make the rolls. You do not need to thin the stems of the leaves you use to line the slow cooker.
• Whisk together tomato sauce, lemon juice, flour, ground ginger, and Tabasco sauce.
• Add half the suggested sugar and taste it. The sauce will taste "raw," but you will be able to get a general idea about how sweet it is. If it isn't sweet enough, add more sugar a little at a time. (Note that sweetness will intensify as the sauce cooks.)The amount of sugar needed depends both on the amount of sugar in the tomato sauce you use and your personal preferences. Set prepared sauce aside.
• If you enjoy a lot of sauce with your cabbage rolls, you may want to double the sauce amounts.
• Rinse the rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Drain in a wire sieve or colander. In a medium bowl, mix ground meat, rice, salt, pepper, garlic powder, ground ginger, oregano, chopped onion, and egg until thoroughly combine.
• Basically, cabbage rolls are rolled exactly like a burrito.
• A - Place ¼-⅓ cup filling on the stem end of a single cabbage leaf. B - Roll the stem end up over the filling. C - Fold both sides into the middle. D - Complete rolling with the final flap end resting down.
• Line the bottom of the slow cooker with leftover cabbage leaves. Place the prepared cabbage rolls on top of the loose cabbage leaves. Stack them in two layers. Do not crowd. Rolls will expand as the rice cooks inside them. Use any remaining cabbage leaves or chopped cabbage to fill in any spaces around rolls.
• Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the rolls in the slow cooker.
• Cover and cook on LOW for 5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F | 71°C.

SLOW COOKER STUFFED CABBAGE ROLLS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to boiling.
• Take out the core of the cabbage head, then, submerge the cabbage in the boiling water for a few minutes until some of the leaves start to peel away and the leaves begin to soften, in a way that each leaf must be pliable enough for rolling later.
• Remove from water and cut off the thick part of the leaves to flatten it.
• Combine the "Cabbage Rolls" ingredients, except the cabbage, in a large bowl.
• Spray the slow cooker with cooking spray.
• Layer 3 cabbage leaves on the bottom of the slow cooker.

SLOW COOKER CABBAGE ROLL SOUP

Steps:

• To a large skillet, add the bacon, onion, and cook over medium-heat until the bacon is nearly cooked and the onion is soft and translucent, stir frequently.
• Drain off most of the oil and discard. Remove the bacon, onion, and set aside.
• Add the ground beef to the skillet and brown it using the remaining oil. Stir and crumble the beef as it cooks to ensure even cooking.
• To a 7 to 8-quart slow cooker, add the bacon, onion, browned ground beef, all remaining ingredients (except optional garnishes), and stir to combine. Tips - Start with 6 cups of the beef broth; you can always add more later. Place the bay leaves into the slow cooker last, on top, so they are easier to find and remove later.
• Cook on high for 3 hours OR on low for 5 to 6 hours, or until done. While cooking, if you notice that the overall level of broth is low or lower than you'd like, add the remaining beef broth (up to 2 cups, or as needed).
• After the soup has cooked, remove the bay leaves, stir, taste, and check for seasoning balance. Tip - If the soup tastes at all flat or like it's lacking something, it likely needs more salt so don't be afraid to salt it as necessary. Additionally, if you want to play up the smoky aspect, add additional smoked paprika as desired. To add a tiny bit of heat without making it spicy, a couple tiny shakes of cayenne pepper will do the trick.
• Optionally garnish with parsley and/or marjoram, or Parmesan, as desired and serve immediately. Soup will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Use freezer and microwave-safe containers for ease.
