Steps:

• Place pot roast, onion, mint, garlic, cinnamon, allspice, and bay leaves in a large pot. Season with salt and pepper. Pour in enough water to cover the roast. Cook over medium heat until roast is tender, adding more water if needed, about 4 hours.
• Stir cabbage wedges into the pot. Simmer until cabbage is tender, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix beef broth and beef stew meat in a large pot over medium heat. Bring broth to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook beef at a simmer until tender, about 45 minutes.
• Stir corn, green beans, tomato sauce, and tomato paste with the beef. Pour tomato-vegetable juice cocktail into the pot; season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook for 5 hours.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a soup pot over medium heat until it sizzles, about 1 minute. Add potatoes, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook and stir for 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir for another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add kale and bay leaves to the pot. Cover and let kale wilt for 2 to 3 minutes.

• Return broth to pot, cover and refrigerate overnight for fat on surface to harden.
• To finish soup, cut sausage in quarters lengthwise, then crosswise in 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Brown in a skillet 5 minutes.
