Ingredients

Directions

  • Cut head of cabbage into quarters, then cut down into 2"-3" chunks (I remove some of the core of the cabbage).
  • In a large dutch oven, heat oil on medium heat onion and sauté until wilted.
  • Add garlic.
  • ​​​​​Add sliced Savoie's® Sausage and cook for an additional 10 minutes or so until edges of sausage are brown.
  • Add cabbage, water and sprinkle salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning throughout as you layer the cabbage into the pot.
  • Add pickled pork, cover and begin cooking on a low-medium heat.
  • After about 15 minutes, sprinkle sugar and stir throughout.
  • Cook for an additional 1½ hour on low heat, stirring every 20 minutes. Until cabbage is wilted and caramelized and pickled meat is tender.
