Easy Corned Beef & Cabbage

Recipe Introduction
I buy the canned corned beef at the dollar store and make this when cabbage is on sale. Talk about a frugal meal!
List of Ingredients
4 slices bacon
4 tablespoons butter (I used half this amount)
1 head green cabbage, coarsely chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 can corned beef
Recipe
Cook the bacon in large pot over medium heat until almost crisp. Remove
the bacon from the pot and set aside. Melt the butter in the pot with
the bacon grease. Add the cabbage, stirring well to coat the cabbage in
fat. Add about 1/3 cup water, and salt and pepper, to taste. Cover pot
with a lid, and cook over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop the bacon into small pieces. Remove the lid from the
pot, and scatter chunks of corned beef and chopped bacon over top of
the cabbage. Cover and cook until desired doneness. I personally like a
little bit of crunch left to the cabbage.
Tip: Cabbage is one of those vegetables that naturally contains water
in its leaves. Begin by adding just a small amount of water. As cabbage
cooks, if it needs more liquid, then add more water.
Serves 4 to 6.
