4 cans (14.5 oz each) petite diced tomatoes, drained
2 cans (14.5 oz each) reduced-sodium beef broth
2 cans (8 oz each) tomato sauce
2 tbsp cider vinegar
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp Cajun seasoning
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 medium heads cabbage (about 4 lbs), cut into 1½-inch pieces
3 lbs ground beef
1 lb bulk Italian sausage
2 medium onions, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
Optional for serving:
Hot cooked rice
Chopped fresh parsley
In a large Dutch oven or stockpot, brown ground beef and sausage over medium heat with onions and garlic until no longer pink; drain excess fat.
Stir in tomatoes, beef broth, tomato sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Add chopped cabbage and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30–35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve hot, optionally over cooked rice, and garnish with fresh parsley.
