Ingredients

8 servings

•

1 head cabbage
•

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
•

1 onion, chopped
•

2 cloves garlic, crushed
•

0.75 cup uncooked white rice, rinsed

•

1 pound ground beef
•

1 pound ground pork sausage
•

1 egg, beaten
•

1 (32 ounce) can tomato juice

Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook cabbage in boiling water until outer leaves pull away easily from the head, 3 to 5 minutes.
Separate leaves and let cool. Reserve 1 1/2 cup cooking water.
Heat oil in a large skillet. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in wet rice; cook and stir until moisture evaporates, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool, about 5 minutes.
Mix beef, sausage, and egg together in a large bowl. Stir in cooled rice mixture.
Place a golfball-sized amount of the beef mixture on the ribbed end of a cabbage leaf; roll up, tucking in the sides. Repeat with remaining beef mixture and cabbage leaves.
Place rolls seam-side down in a slow cooker. Cover with tomato juice. Pour reserved cooking water on top.
Cook on High for 30 minutes. Switch to Low and cook for 6 1/2 hours.
