BBQ Cabbage on the BGE

bubba tim

Always wanting to do something different, decided to BBQ some cabbage after reading about a recipe by Steve Raichlen. It looked great in the book, had the egg all fired up, hey, why not.


The finished BBQ cabbage was not bad but would make some changes. When we do this again, we would cut into quarters, brush on the bacon drippings, would not add the butter, then hold off on the BBQ sauce until the last 10 minutes of the cook. At plating is when I would add the Carrmelized onions and bacon. This would also make it easier to serve instead of trying to cut a hot ball of cabbage.
Hope you like it.

That looks pretty tastey. i have done them with leftover brisket and mango peach salsa and they came out pretty good.

I've got the book and keep meaning to try it. We saute bacon and cabbage as a side on our New Years Day meal. Thanks for what I'd do next time tips.

I have been going to do this for a long time.

Went to the fridge, cabbage bad, sausage bad, gound beef bad.

Tossed it all. I see these great ideas, buy all the stuff and never get around to it.

Pretty simple, you put in a mixure of carmelized onions and bacon, with butter then top it off with your favorite bbq sauce. This is supposed to be a side, but based on some of the thread posting with [code]risket and brown snauages (sp) lol, this could very easy become a main dish. I like the concept of wrapping the out side with foil. It saves a few of the outer leaves. I just have a problem with cooking with foil. Very bad JuJu.
