    we have been enjoying bacon and cabbage for years, even on the grill you wrap your cabbage wedges with a nice thick slice or two wrap that in foil and grill till tender, with that being said, I love this recipe because it's good, cheap and fast...now thats a great combination don't ya think? Thanks Paula!

    This really WAS easy! I made this for St. Paddy's Day. I was hesitant to use the canned corned beef but since Paula insisted in the video that it really is delicious, I went ahead and used it. It took only 15 minutes to make and was delicious.

    Deep down though, I really do think that making the actual corned beef would have tasted much better. Just taken hours longer. I think next time, I'm going to make my corned beef and cabbage without the canned corned beef! But this one is perfect if you are in a hurry!

    I have made these recipe several times and we really enjoy it. I am suprised at some of the reviews complaining that it isn't made with beef brisket. This is a tasty quick recipe that reminds us of the traditional meal, but never pretended to be a substitute for it. It is delicious and we will use it many times more! Thanks for a simple tasty meal.

    Well Paula you did it again. This was a hit in my household minus the corned beef. I never had corned beef therefore, i was afraid to put it into the cabbage but the cabbage was delicious. The cabbage was quick and easy to prepare. This is definitely a keeper!!!

    I made the cabbage by itself and my family said it was the best cabbage they ever had. I made real corned beef in the crock pot and used the juice from that for the water needed in the cabbage mixture. Excellent recipe!

    I am not a big fan of corned beef, but my husband is Irish and likes to have this dish on St. Patty's Day, so thought I would try Paula's recipe. It was FANTASTIC!! I even added some shallots to the bacon when frying and everyone just loved it. A must keep recipe for the future!! Thanks Paula!

    I make this but I don't use the bacon or the butter. This recipe is great without that. I just use water seasoned with salt and boil the cabbage untill almost tender, then I add the corned beef and simmer about 5 minutes, add a touch of sugar if you like (splenda just to cut a few calories if you must. Try this way if you don't want all the bacon grease and butter.

    If you're making corned beef today then use the leftovers for this dish. To cut the fat calories I buy eye round corned beef from BJ'S.

    This dish is similar to dishes my grandmother and mother made and I still make. Sometimes just vegetables cooked in bacon grease, sometimes with ham and occasionally canned corned beef--what ever was in the pantry/could afford.

    By the way cooking cabbage and bacon is Irish, unlike corned beef, & adding leftover meat (corned beef makes sense. Irish ate lots of pork just like Southerners and for the same reason, beef was a rich man's meat. Canned corned beef is cheap and, while it may be artery clogging, it may be better for you(and cheaper, when cooked with cabbage, onions etc, than the fast food junk people stuff themselves with everyday.

    I absolutely adore Paula D.! I watch her show and enjoy her products as often as possible (quite faithfully, as able! This is just an example of a dish that contains 1 corned beef 2 cabbage and 3 is easy. What else could you ask for? I recognize an original version of this classic isn't particularly difficult, but let's face it: how often does corned beef brisket go on sale? Generally, only a few times a year. In my opinion, I wouldn't spend the money on that coarse/tough of a meat if it wasn't on sale! This would be a simple fix and a tolerable substitute if the real deal wasn't available. Note: the episode is titled 'Busy Working Women's Quick Meal'. I don't feel this is in anyway grossly misrepresented! If you're worried about your arteries, forget the bacon and butter: perhaps consider turkey bacon and EVOO. Better yet, please try to realize that none of us share any body parts with Paula Deen and that, frankly, she can eat, cook, and do whatever the hell she pleases :
