4
ingredients
- 2 lbs pork baby back ribs
- 4 country-style pork ribs (optional)
- 2 lbs sauerkraut
- 2 cups chicken broth
directions
- Place sauerkraut in a large roasting pan.
- Place ribs on top of kraut and add the chicken broth- pouring it over the ribs.
- Cover roaster and slow roast in 300 degree oven for about 2 1/2 hours. Shorten cooking time by raising temperature to 375 degrees for 1 1/2 hours if you are in a hurry.
- Watch out when you remove the lid because the aroma may drive you to dig in before it's out of the oven!
- Serve individually with mashed potatoes, placing some of the kraut and juice on the potatoes. Or serve family style with ribs on top of kraut.
- Extended cooking tends to melt the kraut into the broth so if you are cooking it for a long time, add even more kraut. It's good as a leftover too.

One Farm Guy to another: I use this recipe at least once a month. I love its' simplicity, and the result... However, I must recommend one ingredient: Any recipe using sauerkraut and pork needs a light sprinkling of caraway seed. About half a tablespoon of caraway, sprinkled on the sauerkraut before the pork is added, brings out the flavor of both ingredients and adds a subtle flavor of its' own, bringing it all together... Try it, and you'll like it...

Oh my GOSH -- this is SO GOOD!!! I'm not even a huge fan of Sauerkraut, but the long cooking mellows the flavor, and it just tastes like really good seasoned cabbaged! Didn't have enough Sauerkraut last time I made it, so I subbed some shredded cabbage and mixed with the Kraut. The ribs come out so tender and tasty. And could it be any easier!?? Everyone in the family LOVED it -- even the kids. Thanks HF Guy!
