Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place meat in 9 x 13 baking dish or roaster pan.

SPARE RIBS WITH SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Place ribs in a large pot, cover them with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain the water and cool the ribs until you can touch them. Cut them into 1 or 2 rib portions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set them aside.
• In a large Dutch oven sauté the onion in shortening until glassy. Add the ribs, reduce the heat and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Drain sauerkraut and add it to the ribs. Pour water and wine over the ribs. Add the apple, bay leaf and cloves, turn up the heat and bring to a boil. Turn down heat to low, cover the pot and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
• Peel, wash and grate the potato and place into the sauerkraut mixture. Add a little water if needed. Stir and simmer another 1/2 hour. Season with salt and pepper and a dash of sugar.

RIBS AND KRAUT

Steps:

• put oil in a large oven proof pot (I use cast iron).
• brown ribs in the bottom of the heated pot.
• Remove ribs from pot.
• Cook onion in pot just until they start to turn brown.
• Add the potato halves.
• Put ribs in pot over onions and potatoes.
• Pour sourkraut in pot on top of onions, ribs and potatoes.
• Pour water over kraut.
• Put lid on pot and put in oven at 350 degrees for 3 hours.
• Remove and enjoy!

RIB TIPS AND KRAUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Mix salt, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a bowl. Rub spices on ribs.
• Sear rib tips on the preheated grill until spices start turning black, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Pour sauerkraut into a large baking pan; mix in grilled rib tips. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until ribs are tender, about 2 hours. Remove from the oven, stir, and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

COUNTRY-STYLE RIBS & KRAUT

Steps:

• Season Ribs & place in a crockpot.
• Rinse & Drain Kraut, thoroughly in cold water.
• Mix Kraut with the Caraway Seed, chopped Onion & season salt.
• Place Kraut mixture on top of Ribs.
• Empty can of soup on top of kraut & then the butter.
• Turn crockpot on LOW setting & cook for 8 hours.
• (This also works great with a Pork Bott Roast or Bratwurst).

GRILLED PORK RIBS AND SOUR KRAUT

Steps:

• Mix brine solution and marinate ribs overnight in covered non reactive container. You will need to make enough brine to completely immerse ribs so I kept the math simple.
• In BBQ grill start coals about 1 1/2 to 2 hrs before cooking. You want a nice medium to medium/low heat on the coals. When the coals are ready, use tongs to move coals to outer edges of grill. This is making room for the steaming pan. (I use a 9x12 pan.).
• Mix steaming solution and fill pan 1/2 way. Place pan in center of grill and move coals so that they coat evenly from the edge of BBQ to the pan. (You will need to keep an eye on the steaming solution as it will evaporate away) Keep the pan filled during the grilling process.
• Spray grill with non stick olive oil spray and place on BBQ.
• remove ribs from brine solution and place on grill fat side down. Close lid.
• Mop ribs with mopping solution every 20 minutes or so turning each time you mop.
• If ribs start to cook to fast open lid vents to let some heat out. (cooking to fast will result in tough ribs and no one likes that.).
• Depending on size of grill and amount of ribs this will from 5 to 10 hours.
• I prefer a slightly crispy outside to my ribs so I stop mopping in the last hour of grilling. But do continue to turn every 20 minutes or so.
• Test ribs for tenderness with meat fork. (I like my ribs to almost fall off of the bone.).
• 30 Minutes before ribs are done cooking place sour kraut in cast iron dutch oven and place ribs in pot to simmer. (This will finish the ribs to desired tenderness and share flavors between the meat and the sour kraut.).
• Serve with your favorite side dishes and salads.

PORK RIBS AND SAUERKRAUT-HILLTOP STYLE

Steps:

• 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.
