Cabbage Rolls (Galumpkey)
1 head of cabbage 3 lbs. of hamburger 3 cans tomato soup 2 sticks of butter 2 cups of cooked rice 2 eggs 1/2 cup bread crumbs salt and pepper (to taste)
Prepare cabbage for rolling hamburger. I usually like to do it the old fashion way by floating it in a large pot of boiling water. Carefully cut slices on the top, so each of the cabbage leaves float off of the head. Remove all of the leaves and place on paper towel to drain. Cut spine of lea f off so the leaf is not really thick. In the meantime, prepare beef for rolling. Mix rice, bread crumbs, eggs, hamburger, salt and pepper (like making meatloaf.) The rice should be already cooked. Roll individual leaves of cabbage with meat mixture, about the amount of a very large meatball. If leaf is small, adjust mixture. Cut up 1 stick of margarine, melt in pan while pre-heating 12 or 18 quart oven to 350 degrees. Place each rolled cabbage in cookwell of oven. After 1 layer, pour undiluted tomato soup on top. Add slices of butter. Layer this way until done. Add water to almost cover rolled cabbage. Cook for approximately 1 - 2 hours. Done when inside of meat is no longer red. These always taste better reheated the day after.
Anyone with a heart condition, should not prepare with butter. Follow doctor's advice. Enjoy.

Add stock, carrots, onions, celery, and cabbage. Lower heat to 250 degrees and let cook for 2-3 hrs. Add barley in last half hour. This is very good and the kitchen smells good too!

This recipe is a traditional Louisiana bayou treat that can be served as a main course or as a side dish.
Cajun Red Beans & Rice
The night before cooking, in the cookwell of a NESCO® 4 or 6 quart roaster, mix the following together (Do not turn roaster on at this time): 1 pound of dry red kidney beans Enough water to cover the beans plus about 2" over. 1 tsp Cayenne red pepper 3/8 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/4 tsp marjoram 1/2 tsp paprika 4 tsp chili powder 1/4 tsp oregano 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1 1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning (Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning)
The next morning, turn the roaster on and set the temperature to about 225 degrees and add the following: 3 cups water 2 tsp tobasco sauce 2 bay leaves 3 beef boullion cubes 1 TB Worcestershire sauce 1 can Rotel diced tomatoes and chili peppers 1 pinch brown sugar
Simmer throughout the day, stirring and adding water as necessary to keep the level about 1" above the beans. Two hours before serving, turn up the temperature to 300 and bring to a boil. Add the following vegetables and cook for 1/2 hour, stirring occasionally: 1 stalk celery, chopped 1/2 green pepper, chopped
Cut up 1 pound of German or Polish sausage into small slices and add to the red beans. Continue to stir and simmer and it will start to thicken. If necessary, turn the temperature up to 350 degrees to speed things up. When thickened, the red beans are ready to serve. Serve over 3/4 cup rice with fresh corn bread and fried okra on the side. Serves 6 to 8.

Catherine's Famous Baked Beans
6-7 pounds pork & beans (store brands are good for this & cost a lot less) 2 pounds bacon (some stores sell bacon pieces in the meat cases). Cut up bacon into bite size pieces 1 pound dark brown sugar 1/4 cup regular yellow mustard 1/8 cup worstershire sauce 1/8 to 1/4 cup bar-b-que sauce (if you don't have any, you can mix equal parts of catsup and coca-cola & that makes a good bar-b-que sauce)
Turn 4 cooker to 400 degrees. Put beans, brown sugar, mustard, worstershire sauce, barbeque sauce and pieces of raw bacon into 4 quart roaster. Mix well. Cover. When the mixture starts to boil, stir well and turn down to 250 to 300 degrees and let simmer at a light bubbling boil, stirring often (you want most of the bacon juice to absorb into the beans). When the beans have thickened and most of the juice is absorbed to your liking (this usually takes 2 to 2 1/2 hours), turn down to simmer to keep warm. Enjoy anytime. Makes 20-25.

This meal was served widely by European immigrants who came to the US to work in the mines. They were served throughout the mining territories early in the century, when the miners would take them, wrapped in paper, for lunch. They would stay warm for hours.
Cornish Pasties
Crust: 1 1/2 cups flour 1/2 cup shortening 1/2 tsp. salt Add enough water to stick together (approx 6 TB)
Filling: 4 good sized potatoes, shredded large 3 pork steaks, deboned, fat removed, cut up into 1/2" squares 2 onions, chopped 1 cup rutabaga, finely shredded 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. pepper 1 TB parsley flakes
Mix crust together with pastry blender until dough is held firmly together, but not too sticky. Add water 1 TB at a time until mixed properly. Mix all ingredients of filling together in large bowl. Set aside. Divide dough mixture into 4 parts and form each into a ball. Roll each of them out into an oval, approximately 9" x 14". Put 1/4 of the filling onto one-half of the oval (as indicated), fold over crust and pinch edges tightly to make into a semicircle. Poke 3 small holes in top of pasty with a knife end to let steam escape while baking. Bake on rack in an 18 quart roaster for 1 hour at 400 degrees. You can use the double rack to hold 2 on top and 2 on the bottom. If browning is uneven, swap top and bottom half way through the baking. Serve plain, or with butter or ketchup. May be wrapped in heavy paper and taken with you to stay warm for quite a while. Serves 4.
