Patts Pork And Sauerkraut Food

PATT'S PORK AND SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• 1. Season ribs with salt and pepper and any other spices you like. I like dill weed (Bavarian-style)and sage or whatever I feel like using that day!
• 2. Brown the ribs in a skillet and remove. Deglaze the pan with a little (1/4-1/2 cup)liquid of your choice: water, chicken broth, white wine. Scrape up the brown bits of flavor into the liquid and save after it's mixed and some-what smooth.
• 3. Prepare Sauerkraut: Drain and save the juice from sauerkraut cans. You can choose to rinse the kraut or not, depending on your preference. You can add caraway seeds, peppercorns or other favorite herbs and spice to the sauerkraut.
• 4. Butter a roasting or baking dish big enough to fit the ribs and place browned ribs in pan. Cover the ribs with the sauerkraut and pour saved sauce over. Cover and place in a 350 degree oven for 1-1/12 hrs.
• 5. Prepare the potatoes: Peel and cut potatoes into equal pieces and place in a sauce pan with water to cover. Boil the potatoes until done enough to mash; 15-20 mins. Mash the potatoes with a little milk and butter but add a little of the Sauerkraut juice to make smooth as you like.
• 6. Serve ribs covered with Sauerkraut and top the mashed potatoes with sauerkraut. Dig in and ENJOY!
• 7. This recipe can easily be used with crock pot. Brown the ribs, stack ribs, sauerkraut, ribs, etc. Pour sauce over all and set on low for 4-6 hrs.

PORK AND SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Preparation -.
• Place the pork roast in a Dutch oven or other large, deep, heavy pan. Add about 1 cup water and black pepper. Cover and cook over low heat for about 2 hours. Mix the sauerkraut, applesauce and brown sugar together. Pour the mixture in to the pan, over the pork roast. Cover and simmer for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours longer or until the pork is tender and falling apart.
• This can also be roasted in the oven, in a covered roasting pan. Set the oven temperature to 350º and roast for about 2 hours. Add the sauerkraut and other ingredients, lower the oven temperature to about 300º, and roast for an additional 1 to 1-1/2 hours. This is also a good crockpot meal. Just add all the ingredients at once and cook on the low setting for about 7 hours.

PORK AND KRAUT PATTY MELTS

Steps:

• Form the ground meat into 4 equal balls and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large cast-iron or heavy pan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the balls to the pan and smash them down with a spatula until slightly larger in diameter than the bread. Cook for 4 minutes without moving, then flip and top each patty with some sauerkraut and 2 slices of cheese. Cover and cook until the patties are cooked and the cheese is totally melted, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread a little mustard on each slice of bread. Sandwich each patty between 2 slices of bread. Brush the exterior of the bread with the mayonnaise and toast the sandwiches on both sides in the pan.

PAP'S PORK AND SAUERKRAUT

Stir in the cider, beer, red pepper flakes, coriander, pureed sauerkraut and ham hock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
• Nestle the pork and sausage in the Dutch oven and continue to simmer for 45 minutes, until all of the meat is cooked through and tender. After 45 minutes, remove the ham hock, pork and sausage to a cutting board. Slice all of the meat and add it back into the pot. Mix in the parsley and mustard and additional salt and pepper, if needed.
