Cabbage cooked the Southern way by sauteing in bacon grease then slowly cooking until tender.

Ingredients

  • 1 head of cabbage
  • 3-4 tablespoons bacon grease
  • Salt & pepper
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth or water (possibly)

Directions

  1. 1

    Cut the head of cabbage into quarters and remove the core from each section. Chop cabbage into 1” pieces then set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat bacon grease in a very large skillet over medium-high heat. Add cabbage then toss to coat. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sauté cabbage for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    At this point your cabbage should start releasing some of its water. If it doesn't, and your pan is mostly dry, add chicken broth or water then stir.

  4. 4

    Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium-low then continue cooking cabbage, stirring occasionally, for approximately 30 minutes or to your preferred tenderness.
