Ingredients for Crock Pot Unstuffed Cabbage Soup
5 cups beef broth
1/2 head cabbage chopped
1 lb ground beef (We used our Make-Ahead Ground Beef)
1/2 lb ground breakfast sausage
1 onion chopped
28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup quick cooking barley
2 cloves garlic minced
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
How to Make Unstuffed Cabbage Soup in a Slow Cooker
- Put your cabbage in your crock pot (5 quart or larger) and set off to the side
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown your meat with your onion, drain and put back in your skillet
- Pour your broth, tomatoes (undrained) and the rest of your ingredients in your skillet
- Combine well and use a spoon to ladle over your cabbage in your crock pot
- Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours (give it a good stir before serving)
Crock Pot Unstuffed Cabbage Soup Notes:
- This soup makes a lot, so I would recommend at least using a 5 quart slow cooker or bigger.
- This is a great way to use our Make Ahead Ground Beef and make this a dump and go recipe.
- This is a great all day recipe for those that need longer cooking times. If you are short on time pop it over to high and cook for 5 hours.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
- As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
