Hi All,
We got a BUNCH of sausage (somewhere between 30 and 40 pounds) from my recent 394 pound hog. I decided to try it out in a recipe we've been enjoying for a while, but up 'til now, just using ground beef. The wild hog sausage adds a lot to it - It's simple, fast, easy, and really good! Good for you, too! Here's all you do:
In the bottom of a big pot, brown about a pound of your hog sausage. If it gets too dry before it's completely browned, add a little water or even some fruit juice.
Once the sausage is well browned, add a pint of your favorite salsa. Wal-mart usually has some real good fresh salsa in the produce section, but you can use name-brand out of a jar, or homemade if it suits you. Stir it up well with the sausage, and let it simmer until it's good and hot.
Chop up a head of fresh cabbage, and dump it in on top of the sausage/salsa mix. Cover it, let it come back up to simmering, then stir it around a bit. Cook until the cabbage starts to get tender (more or less, to your taste), stirring occasionally.
Then go for it! My wife didn't even like cooked cabbage until she tried this recipe, but now she's sold on it! If you don't have any wild hog sausage, you can make this with ground beef, ground turkey, store-bought sausage, or just about any meat you prefer (but that defeats the purpose of posting it here on a wild game recipe forum  ). It's been great every time I've made it. This stuff has become a staple food for me ever since I got the big hog! When I run out of sausage, I'm gonna have to go kill me another hog! 
Try it!
Regards,
Jim
