1/2 lb bacon, coarsely chopped
4 cups thinly sliced onions
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3 bay leaves
1 head green cabbage (about 3 1/2 lbs, cored and thinly sliced) or 1 head white cabbage (about 3 1/2 lbs, cored and thinly sliced)
12 ounces beer

Steps:

Cook the bacon in a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, until browned and slightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
Add the onions, salt, cayenne, black pepper, sugar, and bay leaves.
Cook, stirring, until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the cabbage and stir to mix well.
Cook, stirring, until the cabbage just begins to wilt or soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the beer. Stir to mix.
Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour. Remove the bay leaves. Remove from the heat and serve warm.
