Tender Spareribs & Sauerkraut

"My grandpa introduced me to sauerkraut and spareribs and told me how to make it. The brown sugar gives this a distinctively different taste than most sauerkraut and sparerib recipes."

  1. Since my husband and I are now on low carb diets, we have substituted 4-5 pkgs of Splenda and 1/4 tsp blackstrap molasses for the 1/4 C of brown sugar. The taste remains the same -- Delish!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My favorite cookbooks are McCall's Cookbook (no longer in print). It has just about everything in it. I received this cookbook as a bride 36 years ago. I'm still married to the same fellow, so I guess McCall's put out a good cookbook! My passions are my grandchildren, animals, and traveling. My hobbies are sewing, crewel embroidery, and count cross-stitch.
