Cabbage and Assembly

Preheat oven to 300°. Generously season cut sides of cabbage with salt. Place wedges, cut sides up, on a rimmed baking sheet; pour 1 cup water into pan. Cover with foil; bake until tender (a paring knife should slide through easily), about ⏱️ 2 hours.
5
Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about ⏱️ 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Cook sausage in same pan, stirring often, until lightly browned, about ⏱️ 3 minutes. Return bacon to pan and add cabbage, cream, and broth. Cook ⏱️ 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer cabbage to plates. Cook liquid in pan until reduced by half, 10–⏱️ 13 minutes. Spoon sauce over cabbage.
