"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Directions:
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil.
Cut out as much of the core from the bottom of the cabbage as you can. Drop whole into boiling water for 3-4 minutes. Once leaves are separate and pliable, remove from heat. Any leaves that fell off in the boiling water, drop immediately into ice water. Keep repeating dropping head into the boiling water for 3-4 minutes until all leaves are removed and pliable. Set aside 16 of the largest leaves. Slice off any thick parts of the vein on each.
Make sauce: over medium heat saute onion in butter until soft. Add garlic and saute for 2 minutes. Add tomato sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Stir until it reaches a boil, reduce heat to simmer.
In a large bowl, mix beef with eggs, onion, garlic, salt, pepper and rice. Divide meat into 16 pieces of about 2-3 oz each, form into thick cylinders. Place a cylinder of filling onto the bottom of a cabbage leaf. Roll the meat filled cabbage leaf up, folding both sides over the filling and finish rolling to to enclose the filling.
Line the bottom of a 13" x 9" pan with tomato sauce. Place the cabbage roll seam down on top of the sauce. Top the cabbage rolls with remaining sauce then cover the pan with foil. Bake for 2 hours at 350º
