Ingredients
 
 

  • 1.5 lb green cabbage medium to large cabbage
  • 3 pints water
  • 4 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp liquid smoke
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Remove the outer layers of cabbage. Chop or slice the cabbage, then wash well using a colander or salad spinner. 
  • Place all the ingredients, except the cabbage, into a Slow Cooker or Instant Pot. Mix together well with a whisk. Then place the cabbage in the slow cooker. Put the lid on and cook for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low, in a Slow Cooker or Instant Pot.
  • The cooking time is really just an estimate. Raw cabbage chopped into small pieces, will cook faster than thick slices. Cabbage with a little bite will need 3 hours of cooking time. Very soft cabbage will need longer than 4 hours. The Slow Cooker can hold it warm until you are ready to serve it.
