directions

  • Add the Vinegar, Water, Butter and Sugar to a Dutch Oven. Heat all on the stove for about 5 minutes. When the Sugar is dissolved, add the chopped Red Cabbage.
  • Stir all together, then cover and braise in the oven at 325° for 2 hours.** Stir every half hour or so. If the liquid completely evaporates, just add a little extra Water. **I was in a hurry so i let it cook on the stove top for about 10-15 min and then put it in the over for an hour and it turned out great.
  • Serve with a dollop of Goat Cheese.

  1. This was so good :) As someone who used to work for Houston's Restaurant for many years, I was so happy to be able to find this recipe as I LOVE their Braised Red Cabbage :). The only thing different was that (I know for sure) they use balsamic vinegar so I substituted that for the white wine vinegar and it turned out just as good.
     
  2. Love this stuff. Making it again today. Very close to original. I’m more keto so I use low glycemic brown “sugar”.
     
  3. With a houstons/hillstone feet from my house I am kind of obsessed with this dish. This recipe was BETTER! Though I have to admit 2 modifications. One intentional, one not. I thought the recipe said red wine vinegar. I keep my own RWV using red wine that's gone off. It wasn't QUITE as tangy as the original recipe using white wine vinegar, but I liked it. The 2nd--I'm not a huge goat cheese fan so I just don't buy it. I had much milder queso fresco crumbling cheese on hand, so I used that and loved it. But if I had goat cheese, at the restaurant i like it, so I think it would work well with this home version.
     
  4. I suggest adding minced shallots, a chopped red onion, and a bay leaf.
     
  5. This was fabulous!!! A little sweet and tangy, great texture and the goat cheese (just a little) puts it over the top! Next time I'll try to use 1/2 splenda 1/2 sugar, and I only used about 1T of olive oil instead of butter this time around. What an easy, amazing, and economical dish!
