KITTENCAL'S JUICY HAMBURGER/BURGER
We all have our different tastes for burgers I like mine flavorful and juicy this recipe will give you the best of both! see the bottom of the recipe for tips on even more extra juicy burgers! --- making a indentation in the middle of the uncooked burger will prevent the burgers from puffing up into meatballs shapes while cooking and keeps them flat --- do not add any salt into the burger mixture as the dry onion soup already has a lot of salt content, you can sprinkle some on towards the end of cooking if needed, if desired you may add in 3-4 tablespoons of your favorite barbecue sauce to the ground beef mixture

Steps:
- In a bowl crumble the ground beef with clean hands.
- Add in the dry soup mix, egg, garlic, breadcrumbs or crushed soda cracker crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper and hot sauce (if using).
- Using clean hands mix until combined, add in more breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs if needed to just hold the mixture together (do not overwork the meat or it will be tough).
- Divide the ground beef into 6 equal patties (or make 8 small patties).
- Using your large finger or the back of a small spoon make a shallow dent into the center of each patty (about 1-inch wide).
- Place the patties onto a large plate or a small cookie sheet; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours or up to 24 hours to blend flavors.
- Grill or pan fry the burgers as desired until cooked through (if desired sprinkle a small amount of seasoned salt on top while cooking the patties).
- Serve burgers in toasted buns with choice of condiments.
- TIPS FOR EXTRA JUICINESS; shape the hamburger into a ball, press 1 tablespoon cold butter into the middle then seal the meat around the ball then flatten into burger shapes ----or add in 2-4 tablespoons raw finely grated potato into the hamburger mixture then shape into patties, use no more than 4 tablespoons for 2 pounds of ground beef or the burgers will take on a meatloaf texture.

KITTENCAL'S METHOD FOR OVEN COOKED BACON
When I make this I make lots and then freeze in bags using my Food Saver storage system, this method saves time and not to mention the greasy clean up that comes with frying, I pour the grease into a Pyrex measuring cup then save and refrigerate overnight or until hard then scoop out a few tablespoons at a time, freeze on plates then I place in freezer bags to use in recipes to add flavor, you may save or discard the grease --- since RZ system would not accept one ingredient I have listed 1-1/2 pounds bacon separately, you may of course use as much as you like.

KITTENCAL'S CABBAGE ROLLS WITH TOMATO SAUCE
This is my own recipe that I have made for over 25 years, I have made these for weddings, socials and large get togethers and everyone loves them --- I have two large cabbage listed as you will need extra cabbage leaves to line the bottom and top of the pan to prevent the rolls from over browning which may happen during the long cooking time --- cooked rice will also be fine for this and if you like lots of rice you may increase amount --- make certain that the heads of cabbage are frozen then completely thawed before starting this recipe, this will allow for easy removal of the leaves, allow the frozen cabbage heads thaw at room temperature overnight in bowls --- to save some time I most always remove the cabbage leaves a day ahead and refrigerate in a bowl and you may even prepare the ground beef mixture a day ahead so the following day just mix the sauce roll and cook --- for these cabbage rolls I do not precook the ground beef it will cook thoroughly in the oven --- I have listed the sauerkraut as optional if you are a sauerkraut-lover then add it in I most always do it really adds extra flavor to the cabbage and you may use more than 1/2 cup if desired --- the amounts listed will fill a 13 x 9-inch pan very full or even better so you do not over crowd the rolls a larger pan may be used or use two pans and freeze one for another meal, just thaw overnight in the fridge then allow to sit at room temperature for about 2 hours then cook as stated --- if you like lots of sauce then you may double amounts but I would suggest to make it in a larger baking pan if you are doubling the sauce.

Steps:
- Set oven to 350 degrees F (second-lowest oven rack).
- Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan or use a larger pan (for easier clean up I strongly advise to use a disposable heavy foil pan).
- Make certain that the cabbage heads are completely thawed before using for this (to do this remove the heads of cabbage from freezer and place in a bowl then thaw at room temperature overnight).
- Using a small sharp knife carefully remove the hard core/stem from the center of the head, then remove the leaves from the cabbage (you may need to keep slicing off some middle part to remove the leaves easier).
- To speed up cooking time you may want to cook the leaves in boiling salted water for about 8-10 minutes this will give the cabbage rolls a head start and reduce cooking time slightly.
- Using your hands gently squeeze out 2 to 3 leaves at a time to remove excess water, then place the leaves in a large bowl; set aside.
- FOR MEAT FILLING; using clean hands mix all ingredients together for the meat filling in large bowl until thoroughly combined.
- FOR SAUCE; in another bowl combine all sauce ingredients together until blended (adjust the salt and pepper to taste).
- Line the bottom of the pan with cabbage leaves (due to the long cooking time this will protect the rolls from over browning/burning in the pan while cooking, you may also place leaves on top of the sauce then cover with foil but that is optional).
- Using a large spoon or a ladle drizzle half of the sauce over the leaves then spread out to cover the leaves (does not have to cover the leaves completely).
- Stuff the cabbage leaves tightly but carefully with the meat mixture (I use about 1/3-cup for larger leaves).
- Roll up tightly and place the rolls in a single layer on top of the cabbage leaves and sauce in the baking dish.
- Drizzle the remaining sauce over the rolls (using a butter knife separate the rolls slightly to insure the sauce settles between and around each roll).
- Sprinkle about 1/2 cup or a little more sauerkraut over the sauce (if using).
- At this point you may cover the rolls with more leaves if desired (this is optional but good to do).
- Cover tightly with foil.
- IMPORTANT; if you are using a 13 x 9-inch dish it will be very full so place on a large jelly-roll pan to catch any spills.
- Cook at 350 degrees F (oven rack set to second-lowest position) for about 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until the cabbage is very tender, the cooking time will vary depending on how thick the cabbage leaves are and if you have pre-boiled the leaves firstly, I usually check after about 2 hours).

Tips:
- Use high-quality bacon: Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the bacon is flavorful and crispy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the bacon, make sure to leave enough space between each piece so that it can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the bacon will steam instead of fry and will not be as crispy.
- Cook the bacon over medium heat: This will help prevent the bacon from burning. If you cook the bacon over high heat, it will cook too quickly and will not be as flavorful.
- Drain the bacon on paper towels: This will help remove excess grease from the bacon.
- Use a large skillet: This will help ensure that there is enough room for all of the cabbage. If you use a small skillet, the cabbage will be crowded and will not cook evenly.
- Season the cabbage with salt and pepper: This will help enhance the flavor of the cabbage.
- Cook the cabbage over medium-high heat: This will help the cabbage cook quickly and evenly. If you cook the cabbage over low heat, it will take too long to cook and will become mushy.
- Stir the cabbage frequently: This will help prevent the cabbage from burning. If you do not stir the cabbage frequently, it will stick to the pan and burn.
Conclusion:
Fried cabbage with bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your fried cabbage with bacon is flavorful, crispy, and cooked to perfection.
