I think this dish sounds amazing and easy to do, but I think that Bob H has a point with putting it in a casserole dish to make it a bit more crunchy and keep it from becoming sloppy or mushy. I would go for an hour in the oven and see where it sits from there if the rice is done.

If you want a mushy mess then cook this in a slow cooker!! Use a large casserole dish and bake in the oven for 1 hour covered. And yes, cut down the thyme and not call it a "Hot Pot". A Hot Pot is an Oriental way to cook.

if you cook your hamberger&onion together you drain out your onion flavor. after you drain your meat then add the onion cook to tranlucent

I was looking forward to having this for dinner, until I tasted it about an hour ago and WAYYYYYY too much Thyme in it, maybe 1/2 teaspoon, but not 2, at the most I could see possibly 1 teaspoon, but 2 teaspoons is way too much, had to throw it all out...

When it said "Hot Pot" in the title I was expecting some kind of hot seasoning. I will try this but I plan to add some Louisianna hot sauce or chinese hot pepper sauce to the recipe. It sounds really good and easy!!

I made this for dinner tonight. It was okay but would probably be better if the rice and cabbage were added later because they turned to mush. Also if I ever make this again I will leave out or at least cut down on the thyme.
