How to Make Beered Up Cabbage
- Dice 6 slices of bacon and cook in a large skillet over medium heat until almost crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving about 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet.
- Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 medium head of green cabbage, thinly sliced, to the skillet and stir until well coated with the bacon grease and onion. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a 2-cup measuring cup, whisk together 1 cup of beer, 1 teaspoon caraway seeds, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. The mixture may get foamy.
- Pour the beer mixture over the cabbage in the skillet. Stir well to combine using an egg spatula.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook until the cabbage is tender, about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the cooked bacon during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
- Serve hot and enjoy! Consider adding a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
