  • ¼ cup diced yellow onions
  • 1/4 cup butter or other fat if dairy sensitive
  • 2 teaspoons Redmond Real salt

  • Start campfire or grill so it has established coals.
  • Lay out 2 sheets of aluminum foil that are 12 by 12 inches as well as 2 sheets of unbleached parchment paper that are 12 by 12.
  • Lay 1 sheet of aluminum foil down on a counter topped with parchment. Liberally grease the parchment or if doing in the oven a 13 by 9-inch baking dish with bacon fat.
  • Cut the cabbage into 6 wedges, keeping the core attached so the leaves stay intact after cooking.
  • Lay the wedges in the greased tin foil or dish in a single layer.
  • Cut the Kielbasa into 1 inch long pieces and place in the foil. Add the diced onion. Cut the butter into 1/4 inch pieces and place all over the cabbage.

  • Seal tightly with a layer of parchment then aluminum foil wrapping the ends tightly and place over hot coals in the fire or in the oven. Cook for 10 minutes.
  • Gently flip the packet and cook another 10 minutes.
