– 1 large head cabbage, cored and sliced
– 1 tablespoon salt (or to taste)
– 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
– ½ teaspoon onion powder

1. Cook the Bacon: In a large stockpot, cook chopped bacon over medium-high heat until crispy (about 10 minutes). Remove bacon and set aside, leaving drippings in the pot.
2. Sauté Onions and Garlic: Add diced onions and minced garlic to the bacon drippings. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until onions are caramelized.
3. Add Cabbage: Stir in the sliced cabbage and cook for another 10 minutes until softened.
4. Season and Simmer: Add salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Lower heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until the cabbage is tender.
5. Finish and Serve: Stir in the cooked bacon, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
Enjoy!
