How to Make Smoked Sausage Fried Cabbage
- Cook 4 slices of bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet.
- Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet with the bacon grease. Add 1 medium (about 1.5 lbs) head of cabbage, chopped, and 1/2 cup of water. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender-crisp.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add a little more butter if desired (about 1 tablespoon).
- Slice 1 pound of smoked sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Add to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, until heated through.
- Crumble the reserved bacon over the cabbage and sausage.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy this delicious side dish with black-eyed peas and cornbread for a truly lucky meal!
