Preheat the oven to 375F (190C).
Take one small cabbage and remove 2-3 of the outer leaves that hang loose.
Next, cut the bottom where the core is and remove the core by cutting carefully around it with a knife.
Tip: An apple corer works wonders if you struggle with a knife.
Drizzle the inside and outside of the cabbage with olive oil and massage it all around.
Season very well.
Note: All seasonings are to taste and any can be used such as: lemon pepper, Cajun, or Old Bay.
Add two knobs of butter to the bottom.
Add a bulb of garlic with the top cut off.
Then, add two more knobs of butter on top.
Place two long pieces of foil on the bottom (cross-cross) and wrap it making sure add water or broth to the bottom of the foil so the cabbage can steam. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 375F (190C) until soft (about 2 hours).
Squeeze out the bulb of garlic into the cabbage. Serve and enjoy!
