Grandma Milkas Sodoma, Croatian [Cabbage Rolls] - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 large head of cabbage
    2 (1 lb) bags sauerkraut
    1 cup uncooked white rice
    1 large onion
    8 garlic cloves
    1 lb hamburger
    1 lb seasoned pork sausage
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
Preparation
    Place cabbage in a large pot, If you take the time to core the cabbage it will be easier to remove the leaves.
    Fill pot with water until the cabbage is floating. Set temperature to low boil.
    Finely dice the onion and the garlic.
    In a large bowl, combine rice,onion, garlic, hamburger, pork sausage,salt, pepper.
    Mix thoroughly, and form into two inch balls.
    Carefully remove cabbage leaves,.
    With the bottom of the leaf towards you, place a ball on the leaf and roll leaf one comlpete roll, then tuck the sides of the leaf in and continue rolling.
    Place all of the balls on a cookie sheet.
    When all of the balls are rolled, remove cabbage from water, Save the water.
    Chop up the remaining cabbage.
    You can either use the largest pot you have or a roaster oven, which is what I prefer.
    Place bag of sauerkraut on the bottom, add all of the balls, place remaining bag of sauerkraut on top, add the cabbage you chopped up.
    Pour in the water you saved from boiling the cabbage.
    Set Temp to low boil.
    Cook for three hours, the longer it cooks the better it tastes.
