Not really, just look up South Texas Carne Guisada. For the meat, I like chuck roast or steak. The vegetables are onions, Roma tomatoes, garlic, bell peppers, jalapeño for a little heat. I like to put celery in it. Seasonings- chili powder, cumin, black pepper, oregano, salt (easy on the salt). Chicken stock about to the level of the meat and vegetables. I like to go at least 3 hours, thicken it up with corn starch if the gravy is too thin.

Wow! That looks delicious!

I love short ribs too. I make them Korean style a few times a month. Either as kalbi (grilled) or kalbigim (stew / braised but I use the pressure cooker) - potatoes, sake, sugar, soy sauce, garlic.

I should try other recipes. Maybe I’ll try something like that - maybe something easy and familiar like lots of caramelized onions (starter for French onion soup) and go from there.

Btw, not sure if ox tail is convenient but I use that sometimes instead of short ribs - recipe basically as above sans potatoes. Makes for a tasty collagen rich broth. Short ribs and ox tails are my favorite for the pressure cooker.

That pic made me hungry. The mashed looks awesome too!

This is the recipe I used. I need to try some other variations. I liked it because it uses the Instant Pot and that thing is so easy to cook with.

I love stuffed cabbage (golabki for you Polacks). Grew up eating them and have liked them ever since. Only problem is, I've always hated making them as it's a PITA getting the cabbage leaves just soft enough but not too soft.

So, I was thinking about it today, trying to find a work around, and came up with it.

First, mix together the guts:

1# burger (or 1/2 burger 1/2 pork)
1/2 large onion chopped
1 egg
2 oz (or more) chopped mushrooms
1/2 cup white rice (dry) cooked (I used Minute Rice)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika

Cook in large(ish) Dutch oven until meat is almost done. Then chop up 1/2 head of cabbage and mix in with the meat mixture. Cover and bake at 350F for 30-45 min until the meat is done and the cabbage softens.

Remove from the oven and mix in one 28oz can of crushed tomatoes. Cover and heat through. Scoop onto a plate, slather with sour cream, and ooooohhh boy!

All the great taste of regular stuffed cabbage without the hassle and the mess. It doesn't look all that great, but if you like stuffed cabbage, you'll like this.



Now to put some in the freeze dryer and see how it reconstitutes.
