Ingredients
3 frozen bread dough loaves (1 lb each), thawed
5 lbs ground beef
1/4 cup water or beef broth
1 large head cabbage, chopped into pieces
2 onions, finely chopped (or 1 large onion)
2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic
1/2 to 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or to taste)
2 teaspoons seasoned salt (or to taste)
2 teaspoons white pepper (or to taste)
2 teaspoons black pepper
Melted butter for brushing
Instructions
1-First, thaw the frozen bread dough loaves at room temperature until they’re soft and easy to handle. This usually takes a few hours, so plan ahead to avoid rushing.
2-Next, prepare the filling by cooking 5 lbs of ground beef in a large pan over medium heat until it’s browned and crumbly. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, stirring until they turn fragrant and soft.
3-Then, mix in the chopped cabbage, water or beef broth, seasoned salt, white pepper, and black pepper. Cook everything together until the cabbage softens but still has a nice crunch adapt by using vegan protein if you’re going meat-free.
4-After that, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese to add a cheesy kick, then let the mixture cool slightly. For more flavor, for example, check out our classic chocolate chip cookies recipe for ideas on sweet twists, though it’s not directly related, it shows how to play with flavors.
5-Now, roll out the thawed dough and divide it into portions. Add a generous amount of the beef and cabbage filling onto each piece, then fold and seal the edges to form buns. Brush the tops with melted butter for a golden finish.
6-Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF and place the stuffed buns on a baking tray. Bake for 20-25 minutes until they’re golden and cooked through the aroma will make your kitchen smell amazing.
7-Finally, remove from the oven and let them cool a bit before serving. This step ensures the flavors meld together perfectly, and you can always tweak seasoning based on your taste.
