Time 2h15m

Yield 1 large meatloaf

Number Of Ingredients 24

5 pounds ground beef
2 pounds ground lamb
1 pound Irish white pudding, diced
2 cups shredded Irish Cheddar
2 tablespoons Montreal steak seasoning
2 tablespoons granulated onion
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon salt
6 eggs
1 onion, diced fine
6 to 7 cups panko breadcrumbs

Cabbage Cream Sauce, recipe follows
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
2 cups sherry
6 cups heavy cream
Salt and pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Mix together the ground beef, lamb, white pudding, Cheddar, Montreal seasoning, granulated onion, pepper, basil, curry powder, oregano, salt, eggs and onions until well mixed. Add the breadcrumbs and mix well. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Shape into a log.

Place some celery sticks on top of the meatloaf (to keep the aluminum foil off of the top of the meatloaf), cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake to let it crisp up, about 15 minutes more.

  • Heat a medium pot and add the oil. Brown the garlic, and then add the cabbage and saute until translucent. Deglaze the pot with the sherry, and then simmer until reduced by about half. Add the heavy cream and reduce by half again. Add salt and pepper to taste. Fold in the butter and serve hot.

STUFFED SAVOY CABBAGE WITH BEEF, PORK, AND RICE IN A SPICY TOMATO SAUCE



Stuffed Savoy Cabbage with Beef, Pork, and Rice in a Spicy Tomato Sauce image

This recipe brings an old family favorite into the 21st century. Savoy cabbage becomes a wrapper for a fragrant mix of beef, pork, herbs, and nutty brown rice. The bundles, which meld with a spicy tomato sauce, are easy to make: The cabbage leaves are boiled briefly until tender and pliable, and then folded around the filling.

Number Of Ingredients 14

Coarse salt
1 large head Savoy cabbage (2 to 3 pounds)
12 ounces ground chuck (90 percent lean)
12 ounces ground pork
2 cups cooked brown rice (from 1 cup dry)
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon hot paprika
1 can (28 ounces) whole peeled plum tomatoes, with juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Coarse salt

Steps:

  • Make the tomato sauce: Pulse tomatoes with juice in a food processor until finely chopped. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and red-pepper flakes. Cook, stirring constantly, until onion is tender, about 6 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes and juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thick, about 20 minutes. Season with salt. Let cool completely.
  • Make the stuffed cabbage: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add cabbage head, and cook until outer leaves are just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon. Peel outer layer of leaves, and drain. Return remaining cabbage to water, and repeat until all leaves are cooked and removed. Pat each leaf dry with a kitchen towel. Select 12 large light-green leaves. Reserve remaining leaves for another use.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Using 2 forks, gently stir together beef, pork, rice, onion, parsley, paprika, and 1 tablespoon salt.
  • Working with 1 leaf at a time, trim thick part of rib with a paring knife, leaving leaf intact. Arrange about 1/2 cup filling (less for smaller leaves) in center of each leaf. Fold stem end of cabbage over filling. Fold in sides of cabbage. Carefully roll cabbage over to form a package, overlapping ends to seal. Transfer each, seam side down, to a large, shallow baking dish.
  • Spread sauce over stuffed cabbage leaves. Cover with parchment-lined foil, and bake until cooked through and cabbage is tender, about 1 hour.

GROUND BEEF AND CABBAGE



Ground Beef and Cabbage image

My mother was a country cook, plain and simple. But as I have traveled and worked and experienced foods from around the world, I look back and realize that many of the dishes she prepared, while simple, were perfect for that moment. Sometimes we have to put emotion and love in a dish to make it extra-special. The dish I am going to give you today is one like that. Simple and easy, yet full of love and goodness. My mother used to serve this with corn on the cob and cornbread. Very inexpensive and very good as well. Enjoy an Ozark memory...

Grilled Cabbage Steaks with Cilantro-Lime Sauce image

These smoky cabbage steaks make a hearty side dish, but they're also substantial enough to serve as a vegetarian main dish if you add a grain or some beans. Our easy herb sauce made in the blender is light, bright and very versatile. If you have any leftover, it can serve as a salad dressing or a drizzle for other grilled foods.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves
2 cups lightly packed fresh Italian parsley leaves
2 cloves garlic, crushed and peeled
1 medium jalapeño, stemmed and coarsely chopped
Zest and juice of 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons juice)
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
Kosher salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 medium head savoy cabbage
1/2 teaspoon ancho chile powder
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes.
  • Combine 1 1/2 cups of the cilantro, 1 1/2 cups of the parsley, the garlic, jalapeño, lime juice, rice vinegar, honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender and blend on high until smooth. With the blender running, drizzle in the oil in a slow stream to make a very smooth sauce. Transfer to a serving bowl and season with more salt, if needed.
  • Remove any loose leaves from the exterior of the cabbage and set it on its stem end. Cut a thin piece off one side of the cabbage to make it flat; then slice a thin piece off the other side of the cabbage. (Reserve the pieces for another use.) Slice the cabbage vertically to make 4 thick steaks, each about 3/4- to 1-inch thick.
  • Lay the steaks on a baking sheet and stick a skewer horizontally through any that are not holding together. Brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil and sprinkle with the lime zest, ancho powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Grill the steaks, covered, moving them occasionally so they cook evenly, until charred and crisp-tender, 6 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving platter, brush the tops lightly with olive oil and remove any skewers you used.
  • Coarsely chop the remaining 1/2 cup cilantro and 1/2 cup parsley. Drizzle about half of the sauce over the cabbage. Sprinkle with the herbs and red onion and serve the remaining sauce on the side.
