Pork steaks or chops, seared in oil and placed over caramelized onions tossed with cabbage, covered and smothered down with a little chicken stock.
Smothered Cabbage with Pork Chops
I love cabbage and I love it all kinds of ways, though honestly, I make it most often smothered or fried.
Seasoning meats usually center around bacon, salt pork or fatback for those two. Most often, when it's smothered, its usually salt pork or fatback. For fried, bacon is king and the cabbage is also often finished with a deeper caramelization.
