a friend who camps gave me this.

Take an entire head of cabbage, core it most of the way through. fill the cavity with butter, wrap the whole cabbage in bacon, then this in tin foil. put in a 350 oven (or camp fire) and ignore till done..at least an hour. if baking, peel back foil and broil till bacon exposed is crisp. then cut and serve.
Since I have started making this as a regular sidedish, I have tried, cheese, sausage, and ground beef as fillings in the cabbage.
