My mother picked up this pickled cabbage recipe in Pennsylvania, and as long as I can remember, there was always a "bucket" of slaw in the refrigerator. Now I have an old stoneware butter crock in my refrigerator filled with the same!

How long will pickled cabbage last for?

Since this recipe is a quick pickled vegetable, not processed and canned, it is not shelf-stable and must be stored in the refrigerator. While the pickled cabbage won't last as long if it were canned, it will keep for up to 2 weeks in your refrigerator if stored in an airtight container.
