PORK AND SAUERKRAUT

Pork and Sauerkraut image

Eating sauerkraut on New Year's is an old Pennsylvania Dutch tradition, said to bring good luck. The traditional meal consists of pork and sauerkraut served together, with sauerkraut representing luck and the pig representing rooting into the New Year. It's a feel-good and flavorsome ritual and it may be just what you need to start the New Year. Serve with mashed potatoes or dumplings.

Ingredients

1 (3 pound) pork roast
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (14.5 ounce) cans sauerkraut, or to taste
3 cups water, or more as needed
1 onion, chopped
1 apple - peeled, cored, and finely chopped

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place pork roast in a large roasting pan. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix sauerkraut, water, onion, and apple together in a large bowl. Pour sauerkraut mixture over roast.
Bake roast in the preheated oven until heated through, about 1 hour. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Continue to cook roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), adding water if sauerkraut mixture looks dry, about 2 hours more.
Remove roast from oven and allow to rest in a warm area before slicing, about 10 minutes.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 yellow onion, diced
1 head green cabbage, diced
Kosher salt
1 quart apple cider
1 12-ounce can or bottle IPA
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 cup sauerkraut, pureed

Freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cabbage, season with a large pinch of salt and cook until the vegetables begin to melt and break down, 10 to 12 minutes. 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.

Mix in the parsley and mustard and additional salt and pepper, if needed.

This is a recipe that is similar to my Pennsylvania Dutch grandmother's but was modified by me. She used a pressure cooker but I prefer the crock pot. I always serve this with a side of mashed potatoes and applesauce to accompany it.

REALLY EASY PORK AND SAUERKRAUT BAKE

Really Easy Pork and Sauerkraut Bake image

I threw this together when I was really craving kraut. It can be really hard to get good kraut in the UK but as I grew up Pennsylvania Dutch sometimes it is hard to ignore the calling of the kraut juice in my veins. This is really easy and reminds me of when my mother would slow cook pork and kraut for New Year's Eve. Using the lean pork steaks actually makes this pretty low fat. It goes well with mashed potatoes.

Pour the water into the dish and then put the dish into the oven and cook for between 30 to 40 minutes depending on the thickness of your pork.
