BBQ CABBAGE



BBQ Cabbage image

My husbands friend came to visit one night while we were BBQing and gave us this recipe. We invited him for dinner that night and he made the dish, and needless to say, I was hooked! I even got up the next morning and heated some for breakfast! Grilling this on a charcoal grill tastes best, but either will do. If there are left overs, it is good with shredded cheese over the dish. If you live in the north and don't want to brave the BLIZZARD!!, this can be done in the oven as well at 300 degrees for about 30 minutes (just watch for tenderness!). Cooking cabbage this way gives it a totally different flavor!

salt & pepper
any color bell pepper (optional)

  • Fold foil into "packet" by folding sides in first, then rolling ends (be sure there is no way the butter can drip out) Cook on grill (charcoal or gas, but charcoal tastes best) on medium heat for about 30 minutes. The mixture is done when cabbage and other ingredients are tender!
  • Enjoy!

Beer-Can Cabbage image

Yield Serves 8-12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large purple cabbage (about 3 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (12-ounce) can pale lager
2 cups homemade or store-bought barbecue sauce (preferably Kraft Original Barbecue Sauce), divided

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Cut a 3x3" square around core of cabbage at the base. Carefully remove core with knife. Using knife and a spoon, create a 3"-deep cavity in cabbage, big enough to hold beer can. Discard core; reserve leftover cabbage from hollowing out cavity for another use. Using a brush, coat cabbage with oil, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour out (or drink) half of the beer. Place beer can in cavity of cabbage so cabbage sits upright. Transfer to grill. Using brush, generously coat cabbage with 3 Tbsp. barbecue sauce. Cover grill and cook cabbage, brushing with remaining sauce every 15 minutes, until outer leaves are crispy and dark brown and cabbage is cooked through and tender when pierced with a paring knife, 45-50 minutes total.
  • Remove cabbage from grill and discard can. Let cool slightly. Cut grilled cabbage in half lengthwise, then slice each half crosswise into 3/4" strips. Toss in a medium bowl with remaining 1 1/4 cups barbecue sauce (you should have about 6 cups barbecued cabbage). Serve as a side, or make Beer-Can Cabbage Sandwiches.
  • Do Ahead
  • Barbecued cabbage can be made 3 days ahead; cover and chill. Reheat gently in a covered pot on stovetop or in microwave.

BUTTER-BASTED BBQ CABBAGE



Butter-basted BBQ cabbage image

Burn cabbage on a barbecue to add flavour while cooking the middle. It should be near-black when done, but don't worry - you won't eat the charred leaves

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Side dish

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium Savoy or King cabbage , outer leaves kept on
100g butter
4 garlic cloves , grated
1 tbsp muscovado sugar
2 green chillies , finely chopped
1 lime , finely zested and juiced
small bunch coriander , chopped

Steps:

  • Light a lidded barbecue. Let the flames die down and the coals turn ashen, then mound the coal up on one side or heat an oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Wash the cabbage of any grit or soil. Beat the butter with the rest of the ingredients and a pinch of salt.
  • Open the outer leaves to expose the main ball, spread out the leaves and make a few big cuts into the heart. Smear the butter mix over the middle, draw the outer leaves back up, and secure with string (this will stop the leaves falling off ).
  • Sit the cabbage in a roasting tin and cook in the barbecue or oven for 1 hr 15 mins until the outer leaves are charred and an inserted skewer doesn't offer too much resistance. Remove the cabbage and cut off the string, then remove the outer leaves to expose the cooked middle. Cut into wedges and baste with the butter in the tray while warm, so the cabbage soaks up the flavours.
