German Savoy Cabbage Stew with Ground Beef

The German Savoy Cabbage Stew is ideal for a cold day when you need something warm. The stew is easy to make but we recommend to use German bacon. If you use American bacon then get thicker slices. Normally the bacon will be cut in small cubes. So one slice should be one inch thick. Try this stew, you will love it. Happy Cooking!
