Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Cabbage Soup

My wife has got the resolution bug has been going low carb for a while. Most of the stuff in her new regime is, well, the chits. Except the meat

Today I thought I'd be the good supportive husband that I am and build up a cabbage soup she was looking at recipes for. Diet or not I think this stuff will be OK. 2 lbs Chopped steak seasoned and browned first, couple three cups diced tomatoes, a chopped yellow onion, 3-4 cups chopped green beans, couple three handfuls brown mushrooms sliced, head of cabbage sliced, bunch of parsley finely chopped. Oregano, thyme, seasoning salt, cumin seed, pepper, garlic. couple quarts chicken stock. Its real thick and hearty looking I think after an all day simmer it might be pretty dang good. With crackers!!

Well if she had good recipes for cabbage soup, would she mind sharing?

I will of course have you be the judge of a good soup.

Sorry RG, hit the button too quick I've edited with a rough recipe above.

Oh ya and garlic. Lots o garlic. Cumin, oregano and thyme

Biggest mistake you can make with cabbage is cooking it too long and turning it into goo.

Farts will be epic.

I hear you cuzn' I'll check from time to time. Got it so low its barely burbling so it'll take a while. Tell you what if nothing else the smell is really good, makes the place seem warmer on a stormy crappy day

In my case, what else is new? lol

Love it, there's a place close by that makes it with Shrimp and Scallops.

Glad to see that there was no damned bay leaf mentioned! For my part I would leave out the tomatoes, and I do not like seasonings that look and taste like they came out of a pencil sharpener (oregano, thyme and their ilk), but that is just me.

Look what my daughter got me for Christmas:

Pics!

I love cabbage! Need to get wifey to make some!

Cabbage is simply put, the food of Gods!

I’d eat that. And it would indeed be “epic”.

I like cabbage too. I even like sour kraut. My grandpa however would not eat cabbage. He grew up poor in Germany I remember him telling me about having to leave school and was working shoveling coal in steam engines. When he was 12! He said some years all they had to eat was cabbage and once he hit the dirt on this side ~1919 he never ate it again. He said he would if he was hungry but that was never the case again. I suppose a diet of just any one thing for months would do that to you.

Where is the rest of it?

Wife makes several different soups using cabbage. I like it just boiled, and eaten with cornbread.
