Pennsilvania Dutch Country Ribs and Sauerkraut

"This recipe has been passed down from my greatgrand mother and I have been cooking it this way for close to 50 years. Its made with country style spare ribs which are much more tender than the loin meat. I have been making this for the last 6 years for the residents of the apartment complex where I live.I keep having to increase the amounts as everyone wants to take home leftovers."
