Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat smoker to 275 degrees F with your favorite hard wood.
  • Use a sharp knife to remove the stem and part of the core from the cabbage.
  • Drizzle the cabbage head with olive oil and spread evenly around. Season the cabbage on all sides with the sweet rub.
  • Assemble your bacon weave on a large piece of parchment paper by laying 6 slices of bacon side by side and alternating 6 strips in the opposite direction over and under the other strips. Roll up the parchment around the bacon weave.
  • Unroll the bacon weave over the top of the cabbage. Use toothpicks to secure the loose ends of the bacon to the cabbage.
  • Place the wrapped cabbage on the smoker, close the lid, and smoke for 3 hours.
  • Remove from the smoker and take out all of the toothpicks. Slice into wedges and serve.
