Zuurkool Met Spek - Sauerkraut and Pork Hocks

Submitted by mollypaul

"Hollanders like plain, substantial food and lots of it. Long, slow cooking yields an extraordinarily tender meat. This method also works well for spareribs. From the Michigan Dutch chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947."

I prepared this in a crockpot - cooked on low for about 8 hours - the flavor was very good - however, I believe the meat could have been more tender - next time I'll prepare in crockpot for 10 to 12 hours. Thanks for posting.
