To shred cabbage begin by cutting into quarters. Cut by making thin slices across the cut sides of the cabbage. Discard core and any tough ribs.

Heat bacon fat and margarine in a large nonstick skillet. Add cabbage and stir just until glistening. Lower heat and sprinkle pepper flakes and salt & pepper to taste.  Continue cooking and turning until cabbage is just tender and serve!
