Prepare the cabbage by boiling it until the leaves are tender.

Remove leaves carefully and set aside to cool.

In a large bowl, combine hamburger, cooked rice, minced onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Spoon a portion of the filling onto each cabbage leaf, fold in the sides, and roll tightly to secure the filling.

Layer sauerkraut on the bottom of a roaster or baking dish, place the cabbage rolls on top, and layer more sauerkraut on top.

Pour tomato juice over the rolls, ensuring they are well covered.

Cover and bake at 350°F for about 2 hours or until the cabbage is tender and the juice runs clear from inside the rolls.
