SMOTHERED AND SOUTHERN CABBAGE (SOME OF YOU SAY FRIED, WE SAY SMOTHERED). SO GOOD, YOU WILL DRINK THE JUICE! HA! MY DAUGHTER KAYLA LOVES LOVES LOVES THIS CABBAGE!
Ingredients:
2 small heads of cabbage or 1 good size medium cabbage ( i don't use the large heads of cabbage)
2 large yellow onions
seasoning ( i use natures seasoning)
black pepper
salt (add towards the end of the cooking process, taste before and after adding salt)
sugar or splenda (to your desired taste. people differ, some like it sweet some not. sugar takes the bitter out of the cabbage in my opinion)
meat (your choice of bacon, smoked pork (which i use), ham or ham hocks).
Directions:
1. CLEAN YOUR CABBAGE, AND I CUT MINE INTO SMALL QUARTERS.
2. IN A LARGE POT, PLACE YOUR CABBAGE, MEAT AND SEASONINGS.
3. ADD 1/2 CUP OF WATER (CABBAGE TENDS TO MAKE ITS OWN JUICE)
4. BRING TO A BOIL FOR A FEW MINUTES
5. TURN DOWN TO A MEDIUM HEAT. PLACE A SEE THROUGH LID ON TOP OF YOUR POT SO YOU CAN KEEP YOUR SOUTHERN EYE ON THE CABBAGE.
6. STIR CABBAGE A FEW TIMES TO HELP THE SMOTHERING PROCESS
7. TASTE YOUR CABBAGE HALFWAY THROUGH, YOU MAY HAVE TO ADD A LITTLE BIT OF THIS OR A LITTLE BIT OF THAT. LOL!
