Method
- 1
Core and chop the cabbage into roughly 1/2-inch pieces; chop the onion to match.
- 2
In a large stockpot, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crisp; remove and crumble, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
- 3
Add the butter to the pot along with the chopped onion and minced garlic, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the onion is softened and translucent.
- 4
Add the chopped cabbage to the pot in batches, stirring to coat in the butter and bacon fat as it wilts down.
- 5
Pour in the chicken stock, then stir in the Season All, black pepper, and Dixie Dust.
- 6
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is completely tender and richly flavored.
- 7
Stir the crumbled bacon back in during the last few minutes of cooking. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving.
