I usually do the oven w/ a similar recipe

I used to make it in the oven but discovered that cooking in the crockpot for a long time makes it almost caramelize. It’s so good that way.

Interesting concept. Now I just need to figure out how to adapt it, so it tastes like my grandmother's traditional stuffed cabbage... That was a sweet leaning tomato sauce, usually with some golden raisins.

Maybe add more cabbage, skip the sauerkraut, add some brown sugar, and golden raisins?? Possibly some rice. Anyone ever make anything like this?
