- 6 pieces Bacon cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 onion diced, small
- 3 garlic minced, cloves
- 2 tablespoons stone ground mustard or Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 head cabbage sliced and chopped
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground

Instructions
- Heat a large pan on medium heat and add the sliced bacon. Cook until crispy, then removed to a paper towel-lined plate. Remove some bacon grease, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pan.
- Add the onion and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it's translucent.
- Add the garlic, mustard, smoked paprika, salt and pepper and give it a stir to combine.
- Place the sliced cabbage on top and use a large spoon or tongs to stir and saute together for another 12 to 15 minutes. When the cabbage is done it should be buttery soft and slightly caramelized.
