Southern Fried Cabbage Recipe
Lately I’ve been craving cabbage like crazy. Luckily I have many good cabbage recipes. The last cabbage recipe that I posted was for my southern cabbage with ham hock, which I made in the slow cooker. A lot of my viewers tried and loved that recipe, so I’m back with another southern cabbage recipe(I have so many southern cabbage recipes hunny!). This time around I’m going to show you how to make southern fried cabbage with bacon!

Instructions
- Toss the bacon into a large pot or pan, then place over medium heat.
- Cook the bacon until it's browned, and most of the fat is rendered.
- Remove the bacon pieces from the pan/pot, then set to the side.
- Toss in the cabbage, peppers, and onions.
- NOTE: EVERYTHING WILL NOT FIT INTO THE POT AT FIRST. ONCE IT COOKS, IT WILL SHRINK!
- Once the cabbage and other ingredients start to get tender( about 10 minutes) sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, garlic & onion powder and red pepper flakes.
- Cook for another 5 minutes or so, then toss in the bacon.
- Stir the ingredients, then add everything into your serving dish.
- Serve and enjoy!
