DUTCH OVEN BABY BACK RIBS WITH SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Cut slab of ribs into 3 equal segments.
• Heat a saute pan over medium-low to low heat. Lightly toast caraway seeds until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer seeds to a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle and grind until powdered; set aside.
• Place bacon in a Dutch oven and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and let cool enough to handle, about 5 minutes. Leave the bacon fat in the pot. Mince the bacon.
• Season rib pieces with 1/2 of the powdered caraway seeds, salt, and pepper. Set remaining powdered caraway aside.
• Heat the Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the rib pieces in the hot pot, working in batches and turning as needed, 3 to 5 minutes per piece. Set ribs aside on a plate. Add sauerkraut to the pot with remaining caraway powder and additional salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 5 to 8 minutes. Add bacon and white wine; cook for 5 to 6 minutes more. Return rib pieces and cover the pot.
• Bake in the preheated oven until ribs are tender and wine has reduced, about 3 hours. Let rest for 8 to 10 minutes before serving.
