How to Make Caraway Cabbage With Sausage And Potatoes

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 4 slices of bacon, chopped, in a large skillet over medium heat until bacon is crispy. Remove bacon, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed, and 1 medium head of cabbage, shredded, to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is slightly wilted, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon caraway seeds, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock.
  4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12 minutes.
  5. While the cabbage mixture simmers, brown 1 pound pork and alligator sausage (or your preferred sausage) in a separate skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until cooked through.
  6. Add the cooked sausage to the cabbage mixture. Stir to combine.
  7. Cook uncovered for another 6 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  8. Stir in 1/4 cup yellow mustard. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with reserved crispy bacon (optional).
