Deerlupki (Unstuffed Cabbage)
Brand New for my Step by Step Index:
After posting my “Unstuffed Peppers” I got a couple suggestions to make Stuffed Cabbage in that same “Unstuffed” way.
I had thought about that a few times, in the past, but never got around to it.
However this time I got some recipes from a couple guys, “BandCollector” and “Braz”, plus Mrs Bear said she had a recipe for it in her files, but never told me.
So I took all 3 recipes, compared what they had in them, and found out they were all very close to the same ingredients & amounts of ingredients.
Then I narrowed things down to what All of the recipes agreed upon, and made only slight adjustments to the amounts of said ingredients.
Finally since we both agreed, I eliminated the Onions & the Garlic cloves, but I talked Mrs Bear into allowing a tsp of Garlic Powder.
So below is what I came up with:
Ingredients:
2 Pounds of Ground Beef (I used My Deerburger, which is 50% Venison, 25% Ground Beef, and 25% Ground Pork).
1 Small head of Cabbage (Cut-up).
1/2 Cup of White Rice.
2 (14.5 oz) cans of Diced Tomatoes.
8 ounces of Marinara Sauce.
1/2 Cup of Water.
1/4 Cup of Parsley.
1 tsp of Black Pepper.
2 tsp of Salt (I only used 1 tsp)
1 tsp of Garlic Powder.
1 tsp of Paprika.
Directions:
Heat Dutch Oven or Large Skillet over Med-High Heat.
Cook Ground Meat until Browned & Crumbly (5 to 7 minutes).
Add everything else on ingredients list , stirring & mixing as you go (Cut-up Cabbage last).
Bring to Boil, Reduce heat & simmer until cabbage is tender (30 minutes or longer).
Results:
This stuff turned out real easy to make, and tasted just as good as the Halupkis I’ve been eating for over 50 years.
We’ll be making this in the future, on a regular basis, just like we do with our “Unstuffed Peppers”.
It worked out Great using my Deerburger, because it’s already mixed with 25% Pork & 25% Beef, so I would suggest if one was to use Beef instead of Deer, I would add at least 25% Ground Pork to the Beef.
Hope you all like it,
Bear
