Here some option for you. I have never tried Big Boys.
Polish Cabbage Sausage Soup
Ingredients
1 pat of butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped finely
6 small potatoes, diced
1/2 pound Polish sausage, sliced on the diagonal
8 cups chicken broth
or stock
4 cups shredded cabbage (1/4 head)
2 cups frozen peas
Marjoram and Thyme to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
1. Melt butter in soup pot on medium low.
2. Add onion, celery and sausage. Sprinkle with salt, cook until onions are nearly soft, and sausages begin to brown.
3. Add cabbage. Cook until cabbage becomes soft and slightly wilted.
4. Splash a small amount of chicken broth into the pot, and use a wooden spoon to scrape off the brown bits of sausage that cooked onto the bottom of the pot.
5. Add chicken broth and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and allow to simmer for a few minutes.
Notes
If you like your potatoes softer, you can boil them for a few minutes ahead of time, but you really don't want to overcook cabbage sausage soup. If you do, the sausage begins to break down, and spoils the look of the soup. Also, the fat from the sausage leaks out more than it would otherwise.
Tips and Techniques
How you season with spices and herbs depends on whether you are using fresh or dried. If you are using dried, then you want to add the spices at the beginning of the cooking process, before you add any liquid. This is because dried herbs and spices have their flavor locked away in their dried cells, and it takes longer to extract the flavor.
By contrast, fresh herbs and spices give up their flavor very quickly, so quickly that you want to add them only near the end of the cooking process before the flavor has time to dissipate into the air.
So remember: dry herbs early, fresh herbs late.
Cabbage Soup
Ingredients
1/2 head of cabbage, chopped
1 14.5 oz tin of stewed diced tomatoes
1 carrot, diced
1 medium onion, diced
1 celery stalk, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped finely.
Splash of olive oil
8 cups chicken stock or broth
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
1. Heat oil in soup pot, add the onion, celery and carrot and a bit ofsalt. Cook on medium-low heat for about 5 minutes.
2. Add the garlic and cook for two or three minutes more.
3. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on how coarsely the cabbage was chopped. The cabbage should wilt, and then cook for about 10 minutes more to allow flavors to mix.
Notes
Because of the tomatoes, this soup is somewhat reminiscent of cabbage rolls. If you want something that really tastes like cabbage rolls, try adding some cooked ground beef and a bit of rice.
Tips and Techniques
Cabbage works really well with acidic ingredients, which is why you see tomatoes paired with cabbage so often. However, you can always substitute vinegar, lemon or even lime for different flavor combinations.
