Lightly oil large, deep baking dish (9" x 13" x 2 1/2") and set aside. Mix all the ingredients for the ground beef stuffing (except the cabbage) and set aside. Bring a large pot of water to boil on the stove. Cut away as much of the core of the cabbage as possible, loosening the outer leaves as you go. Continue to cut stem as you go along until you have enough whole leaves. You will need 16 leaves. Drop the leaves in boiling water and cook just a few minutes until the leaves are limp enough to roll, but not soft. Cut out some of the thickness of the outer leaves if needed. Wrap individual portions of filling (about 1/4 cup) in softened cabbage leaves. Chop remaining cabbage and place in the bottom of a baking dish. Place cabbage rolls on top of the chopped cabbage. Mix the sweet and sauce ingredients together in medium bowl (tomato sauce, sugar, citric acid and black pepper). Pour the sauce over the cabbage rolls; add enough water so the rolls are covered with the liquid. Cover tightly (I use aluminum foil) and bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Baste the cabbage rolls a couple of times and uncover during the last 20 minutes. * Vinegar or lemon juice can be substituted for the citric acid. You almost need to use the minimum amount and taste, adding whatever flavor is needed. You really can't overcook the cabbage rolls and they are often better the next day.
