Great Grandmas Pork And Sauerkraut Recipes

GRANDMA'S PORK AND SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• 1. In a large skillet over medium high heat, add ½ of the olive oil and let oil warm for about a minute. 2. Add half of the pork chops to the pan and season with a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper. Sear the chops for 2-3 minutes or until chops are golden brown on the bottom. 3. Turn pork chops over, season with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper and continue to cook another 2-3 minutes. 4. Remove pork chops and set aside on a plate. Repeat process with the remaining pork chops using the remainder of the olive oil, salt, and pepper. 5. Remove the second set of pork chops from the pan and place on the plate with the first set of pork chops. 6. Reduce heat to medium low and add can of sauerkraut to the pan; stir sauerkraut to get the fond from the chops off of the bottom of the pan (this will turn your sauerkraut a medium brown color). 7. Place the pork chops on top of the sauerkraut (including any juices collected on the plate from the chops). 8. Pour the water over the pork chops and then cover pan and cook an additional 30 minutes or until pork chops are fork tender.

SAUERKRAUT MY GRANDMA'S WAY

Steps:

• 4. Add kielbasa, cut into 2-3 inch pieces to roaster and continue baking for another 30 minutes.
