Once back home, the focus shifts to preparing a traditional Southern dish: kielbasa and cabbage cooked in bacon grease. The setting is cozy, with the cook at the kitchen table or dog house, sharing the process with viewers. The atmosphere is informal and friendly, with a good dose of humor and storytelling.
Cooking Process: Making Kielbasa and Cabbage
The chef begins by cooking bacon in an electric skillet, emphasizing the importance of greasing the pan with bacon fat for flavor. Next, he adds Polska kielbasa, noting its tangy flavor similar to smoked sausage. The sausage is chopped into pieces and browned, seasoned with pepper, garlic powder, and a splash of Louisiana hot sauce for a kick.
