Ham Hocks and Cabbage
Recipe By :Dottie
Categories:Beef/Pork
3 each ham hocks -- meaty
10 cups cabbage -- cut into chunks
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper -- or more to taste
1/2 cup diced onion
4 each sausage links -- cut into bite-size chunks
1/2 cup dry white wine -- (optional -remove 4g carbs if not using)
1/2 stick butter
2 cloves garlic -- peeled and minced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper -- flakes
water to cover hocks
Put hocks in a large kettle and
cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce
heat and simmer 20 minutes or until the meat starts falling off
the bone.
Remove the hocks and let cool. Add the remaining ingredients
to the water
and cover. (You want the cabbage covered at least 3/4 of the
way with
broth - so add more water if necessary to get this level. You
can add 2 cans
chicken broth at this time of you want this for soup). Simmer
over low
heat until cabbage is tender(about 20 minutes). When cooled enough,
cut the meat off the hocks and add back to the pan of simmering
cabbage.
You can serve this drained or with the broth as a soup. I know
this seems
pretty high carb - but it makes a lot and it freezes well.
