The incredible ingredients...

The cabbage wanted a pic of its own...
cabbage is sometimes snooty like that...

Cook that amazing bacon...
I even put my pork chop pieces in with it...
They all cooked just fine together!

Drain...
The hardest part of this recipe will to be 
NOT eating the pile of bacon..
#truth...



To your bacon grease, add the cabbage...

Stir and let cook down a bit...

Chop those onions!

Add them next...

Then add the pork chops...

The sauerkraut...

and the BACON!!!

Let it steam on low about 30 minutes, 
stirring well and add salt and pepper to your taste..

It will end well like this!!! Enjoy!
