A delightful and hearty dish combining smoked sausage and tender cabbage, perfect for a comforting meal.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, then remove and set aside.
Save the bacon grease for added flavor in the next steps.
Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt, then add the chopped cabbage.
Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
Pour in the water and cover the skillet. Let the cabbage steam until tender but still slightly crisp.
Check occasionally to avoid overcooking the cabbage.
Slice the smoked sausage and add it to the skillet, arranging it on top of the cabbage.
Ensure the sausage is evenly distributed for uniform heating.
Crumble the cooked bacon over the dish and serve warm.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
