Mediocre at best (sorry!). Although the components of this dish are yummy in their own right, they surprisingly did not work well together (IMHO). I had some cabbage in my fridge that needed using up (I purchased it a week or so ago to make Italian vegetable soup - all that my local grocer had at that time were HUMONGOUS heads of cabbage!!!), so I'm glad I gave this a try, if for nothing other than that. I pretty much followed KITKATY's directions to the letter with a few exceptions. I subbed apple cider for water, sauteed my onions/garlic in bacon drippings and browned my kielbasa in a separate skillet (it got a nice char this way). Oh, and I shredded my cabbage (approximately 2 inches wide) instead of cutting it into small wedges as directed since many reviewers suggested that it cooks better this way. For those of you giving this a try, please note: WATCH YOUR CABBAGE MIXTURE CAREFULLY; IT BURNS (I.E. "SCORCHES") VERY, VERY EASILY (I only cooked mine for 12.5 minutes at first, then another 12.5 minutes after adding the sausage and it was nearly burnt!!!). As Leigh Ann did, I too served this with creamed corn and (garlic) mashed potatoes. I also purchased some fresh marbled caraway rye bread to serve on the side. Apple cider completed our meal. Thanks for sharing your idea, KITKATY :) Unfortunately, your dish did not WOW! me enough to give any consideration to making it again (and my fiance is not a huge cabbage fan to boot anyways).
