Thick slices of green cabbage slowed cooked in balsamic vinegar and liquid smoke, with a little salt and garlic powder thrown in for good measure, make for a delicious and interesting side dish.
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.
