I love cabbage and will be trying this, most definitely.
Also, if you’re not familiar with it, I like the 5 Calls app for your phone. You give it your zip code, and it gives you the names and phone numbers of your Reps and Senators. It will give you topics you might want to discuss with them and will even give you a script if you’re at a loss for words.
Whenever you call your congresscritters, always leave you’ve full name, address, and zip code as well as phone number. They’re required to track it, if you give it to them. Otherwise you’re just screaming into the void.
Thank you! You help me maintain my faith that good and right will prevail. And I love watching your videos and reading your posts. I just made this recipe with chicken broth and cut the saltiness (personal preference, of course) by adding some apple cider vinegar at the end. I also reorganized the ingredients list so that it follows the recipe item by item, and I did mise-en-place so everything would be prepped before I started browning the beef (don't want to be chopping cabbage when everything else is simmering). And I added pepper into the final instructions. Here's my edit--hope you get something out of it:
• 2 lbs ground beef (80/20 preferred)
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 white onion, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
• 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp white sugar or honey
• 1 tbsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
• 2 cups beef (or chicken) broth
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tbsp garlic, minced
• 1 head cabbage, chopped into bite-size pieces
• 1 tsp black pepper
Instructions
1. Brown the ground beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Do not drain the fat.
2. Push the beef to the sides of the pot. Add the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Add the onions and peppers and cook for another 2 minutes.
3. Add the flour and mix thoroughly. Add the sugar/honey, paprika, salt to taste, beef (or chicken) broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Add the garlic and simmer for 5 minutes.
4. Add the chopped cabbage in batches if needed. Stir until fully coated in the gravy. Add pepper. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low.
5. Simmer covered for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cabbage reaches your preferred texture.
6. If the sauce is too loose, cook uncovered for a few minutes. If too salty, add apple cider vinegar sparingly. Serve hot with rice, or on its own.
I have found that Gillibrand supports many of my values (esp when it comes to food security and children’s health), so I try to look at the big picture. It’s really difficult - it’s much easier to be a one-issue voter - I think that’s how the GOP gets so much support (by simplifying).
I'd love to make this dish but a dear friend is deathly allergic to peppers. What's a good sub for the peppers? Re: Tr45on, whaddaya gonna do? as my sainted Nana would say. Let's eat.

Good advice! Thanks!

If your representatives already support your values, should we call anyway to encourage them?
Absolutely, yes. That’s exactly what I do in my district. Share the love and ask them what they’re doing specifically to resist all of this.
Mine no longer even respond, occasionally Pat Ryan will. Schumer and Gillebrand need to go!

Oh, you can simply omit them. (The peppers, not the friends.) Or use diced carrots and celery. I hope you enjoy this!
Filthy! Thanks for being here with us today, man. Much appreciate you.
I make a beef and cabbage soup with almost the same ingredients with the addition of a sweet potato and stew beef vs ground beef. Yummy!
