This is one of my fast and easy meals. We love this dish, and the cabbage is such a versatile recipe that you can make it as a delicious side dish for other meats, too. Every time I serve it to someone, they always ask for the recipe. Enjoy! Photo is my own, and so is this humble recipe.

How To Make bonnie's cabbage and sausages

  • 1
    ABOUT CABBAGE Pick a nice firm head of cabbage.
  • 2
    FRY BACON Fry Bacon Crisp, let cool, then crumble and set aside. Remove bacon grease except for one tablespoon.
  • 3
    FRY SAUSAGES Fry the sausages in the bacon grease until nice and brown. Remove, drain on paper towels, set aside.
  • 4
    Knife-cut the cabbage; Add to the bacon grease in the pan. Add chopped onion and garlic to the grease in the pan. Add sugar, pepper flakes, seasoning salt, caraway seeds and the water. Stir to mix, then add the knife-cut cabbage and mix again. Saute with lid on. I prefer my cabbage cooked al dente, about 20 minutes. Bill likes his well done. So I remove mine early and continue cooking his a little longer.

    The last 15 minutes of cooking time, add the browned sausages and mix with the cabbage. Cook over very low heat and let flavors blend, but don't overcook it. Add crumbled bacon to the dish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
