Instructions
- Heat the bacon drippings or vegetable shortening in a 12-inch cast-iron Dutch oven over medium heat on the stove top, fire, or hot coals.
- Add the chopped onion and cabbage, then cook, covered, over enough heat to steam the cabbage for 25 to 30 minutes, or until tender, stirring occasionally to prevent browning.
- Stir in the unpeeled, cored, and cut apples along with lemon juice, sugar, and salt.
- Cover and continue cooking over low heat for another 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and cooked down.
