SMOKED PORK/HAM WITH SAUERKRAUT, POTATOES & APPLE JUICE

Steps:

• In a large roaster or crockpot, layer pork chops or ham, sliced potatoes, sauerkraut, and apple juice.
• Preheat oven 375° or crockpot low heat.
• Cover and cook in oven for 1 hour.
• Cover and cook crockpot for six hours.
• Note: If you have smoked pork chops, no other seasoning is needed except the bay leaf and pepper. If the pork is not smoked you can add a few drops of liquid smoke and the thyme and also crushed or minced garlic. Potatoes tend to "grab" the garlic flavor so add towards the end of the cooking period.
