Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons bacon fat
1 small green cabbage, chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2-3/4 lb smoked sausage, sliced (I like Conecuh, Original)
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained (I like Hunt's Petite Diced)
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon Tony Chachere's Seasoning, to taste (optional)
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

Steps:

Chop/slice the sausage, cabbage, and onion.
In a large non-stick skillet, pre-cook the sliced sausage about 3 minutes to render some of the fat out. Remove sausage from skillet and drain on paper towels if needed. Set aside. Wipe the skillet clean.
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add cabbage and onion and cook and stir on medium-high for about 5 minutes, until cabbage starts to wilt.
Add remaining ingredients, and the sausage.
Cover the skillet and cook for about 10 minutes.
Uncover, and finish cooking until cabbage is desired tenderness and most of liquid has been reduced.

Tips for Making the Best Fried Cabbage with Sausage:

Choose the right cabbage. Look for a head of cabbage that is firm and heavy, with tightly packed leaves. Avoid heads that are wilted or have brown spots.
Slice the cabbage thinly. This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
Use a large skillet or wok. This will give the cabbage plenty of room to spread out and cook evenly.
Heat the oil over medium-high heat. This will help the cabbage brown and caramelize.
Add the cabbage and sausage to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is wilted and the sausage is cooked through.
Season the cabbage with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. Common seasonings include garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Serve the fried cabbage with sausage immediately. It can be enjoyed on its own or as a side dish with grilled chicken, pork, or fish.
