Old Fashioned Cabbage Rolls

I have made this recipe so many times and have tweaked it over and over. I think this is about perfect.

12 cabbage leaves
1 cup cooked rice....can use white, but we use wheat
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/4 cup milk( 1 percent is best)
1/4 cup minced yellow onion
1 pound of extra lean ground meat( I have used beef, deer, moose and turkey...any of these work fine.  Just remember game meat takes a little longer to cook)
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp fresh ground pepper
1 tsp paprika
1 8 ounce can of tomato sauce( Can use chopped canned tomatoes, or stewed with seasonings, like Italian or Mexican, if u want a different flavor)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

In a large pot boil about 8 cups of water, drop cabbage leaves in a few at a time....boil  leaves for 2 minutes. remove, drain and set aside
In a large bowl, combine rice, egg, milk, onion, ground meat, and seasonings. Using a small ice cream scoop( u can use a spoon, an ice cream scoop jsut makes it easier!) Place about a 1/4 cup of the mixture onto the cabbage leaves, roll up, tucking in the ends. Repeat until all the leaves are used.Turn crock pot on low. Place cabbage rolls into the crock pot.

In a small bowl mix together tomato sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over rolls. Cook on HIGH for an hour then turn down to low for 6 to 8 hours. Serve with a scoop of the sauce and a dollop of sour cream!
