• Place ribs in two 13-in. x 9-in. in baking pans. Cover and bake at 325° for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, remove core from cabbage. In a large kettle, cook cabbage in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Remove outer leaves when softened. Return cabbage to boiling water until 12 leaves are softened and removed. Save remaining cabbage for another use., Remove thick center veins from the leaves. In a bowl, combine the beef, pork, onions, rice, garlic, salt and pepper. Place about 1/2 cup on each cabbage leaf. Fold in sides; roll up, starting at an unfolded edge., Drain ribs. Spread 1/4 cup tomato puree and 1 cup sauerkraut in Dutch oven. Layer with ribs, 1 cup sauerkraut, cabbage rolls, remaining sauerkraut and remaining puree. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook over medium-low heat for 45-55 minutes or until ribs are tender and a thermometer inserted into cabbage rolls read 160°. Serve with a slotted spoon or thicken juices if desired.

CABBAGE WITH RIBS

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat up the vegetable oil and sear the ribs on both sides. Season the ribs generously with salt and pepper and then remove them from the pot.
• To the same pot, add the cabbage, and cook for about 15-20 minutes, until it shrinks down. You may have to add it gradually, allowing it to shrink more and more, if your pot is not big enough.
• Add the tomato paste and paprika, and stir well. Place the ribs on top and add about 3 cups of water. (The water should completely cover the cabbage). Cover with a tight lid and cook for 1 1/2 hours on low heat, stirring occasionally, until the meat becomes tender. Taste if the dish has enough salt and adjust, if needed.
• Transfer the cabbage into a large baking dish or tray. You should have a little liquid remaining at this point. Bake at 450⁰F for about 15-20 minutes, until the liquid completely evaporates.
• Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve.

BRAISED SPARERIBS WITH CABBAGE

Steps:

• Put olive oil in a large, deep skillet or casserole that can be covered, and turn heat to high. A minute later, add garlic and chilies. When they sizzle, add ribs, meatier side down; sprinkle with salt and pepper, and add bay leaves. Cook, adjusting heat so the meat browns, 5 to 10 minutes. Turn ribs, and brown again. Remove ribs to a plate.
• Pour off excess fat, and add cabbage and some more salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage browns. Add wine, and stir to release any brown bits stuck to bottom of pan. Return ribs to pot; adjust heat so mixture simmers steadily but not violently, and cover.
• Cook, checking occasionally to be sure the mixture does not dry out. (If it does, add more white wine or water.) When ribs are tender and cabbage is very soft -- this will take at least 45 minutes -- uncover. If mixture is soupy, turn heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally and carefully, until it is more of a moist stew. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to a day before reheating.

BOILED RIBS AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Separate your ribs into single pieces (one bone per bite).
• Use a large stock pot half filled with water- and a pinch of salt-- bring the water to the boil and add the ribs.
• Allow the ribs to boil for approximately 30 minuts.
• Remove the ribs from the water using a slotted spoon- but reserve the water- set the ribs aside.
• Chop your cabbage in desired size.
• Boil the cabbage in the rib water for approximately 30 minutes or until desired tenderness is achieved.
• Return the ribs to the water mixing the cabbage and ribs together for approximately 10 minutes- just enough time to rewarm the ribs.
• Drain and salt and pepper to taste- use a generous amount of pepper- since there are NO other spices in this dish.
• Serve.
