__________________________________________________

This unusual dish takes a while to cook, but it's worth the time and
requires very little effort. Throw a little more charcoal on the
fire and pop open a cold one while you watch it cook.

Barbecued Cabbage

1 medium green cabbage, about 2 lbs (900 g)
4 Tbs (60 ml) butter, melted
1/2 cup (125 ml) your favorite barbecue sauce

Using a sharp knife, cut out the core of the cabbage, leaving a hole
about 3 inches (7 cm) deep. Gently pry apart the leaves to make
spaces between them, keeping the head intact. Mix the butter and
barbecue sauce together and pour into the cabbage. Wrap the cabbage
tightly in aluminum foil and grill over indirect heat for 2 to 2 1/2
hours. Allow to cool enough to be handled, and cut the cabbage into
wedges. Serves 4 to 6.
