SPARERIBS AND SAUERKRAUT



Spareribs and Sauerkraut image

You just cannot do this one wrong. You don't have to drain the sauerkraut. You don't even brown the ribs; they brown without your help. The recipe was handed down to Camille MacKusick by her father-in-law, from the family archives. All sorts of magical juices ooze out of everything. When the last finger is licked and the last lip smacked, everyone will weep.

Categories     Beef     Bake     Beef Rib     Spring

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 country-style spareribs
1 1-pound can sauerkraut, drained
About one-half 18-ounce bottle barbecue sauce
No salt, no freshly ground black pepper!

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F. Choose a baking pan that will accommmodate the ribs in pieces or all hitched together, with the kraut in the space left over. Eight country-style ribs cut into a 6-rib and a 2-rib hunk, plus the can of kraut, fit perfectly in a 9-by-13-inch pan. For more ribs, get a bigger pan and more kraut.
  • Place the ribs in the pan and the sauerkraut in a mound beside them. Cover the ribs - not the kraut - with the barbecue sauce. Use as much as you like, maybe more than half the bottle, maybe less. Cover the pan tightly withaluminum foil and bake for 3 hours. Lift a corner of the foil near the end of the time to sneak a look. The ribs should be nicely browned and glazed and your mouth should water. Serve hot.

GERMAN SPARERIBS AND SAUERKRAUT



German Spareribs and Sauerkraut image

This scrumptious dish was introduced to me by my German college roommate many years ago. We fixed it in our dorm room, which was verbotten, so I always associate this meal with an electric fry pan. I seem to remember we cooked the potatoes with the ribs in the same pan, but I think boiling the potatoes separately is a better idea.

Provided by Mary Leverington

Categories     Pork

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 -4 lbs pork spareribs, cut into serving pieces
1 large onion, sliced
5 cloves garlic, sliced
2 granny smith apples, chopped (you can leave the skins on)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 (28 ounce) can sauerkraut, drained and rinsed well
salt and pepper
12 medium red potatoes

Steps:

  • Brown spareribs in a large frying pan on medium heat until most of the fat has been rendered.
  • Remove to a platter temporarily as you fry each batch.
  • Brown the sliced onions and then add the garlic and cook another minute or two, but do not brown the garlic.
  • Remove onions and garlic from the pan briefly with a slotted spoon and pour off any fat that may have accumulated.
  • Place mushroom soup and sauerkraut in the pan and stir well and scrape up any browned bits that may have stuck to the pan.
  • Add onions, garlic, and apples and stir again.
  • Place spareribs on top and cover pan.
  • Cook for about an hour on low, stirring occasionally.
  • Be cautious in adding any salt because of the sauerkraut, but taste and season accordingly.
  • Boil potatoes in salted water until just barely fork-tender.
  • Serve the sauce over the potatoes.

SAUERKRAUT AND RIBS



Sauerkraut and Ribs image

Source: Memories of my past. Sauerkraut and Ribs, a one pot meal. Hot buttery mashed potatoes is a must with this dish and maybe some rye bread and butter. Extra special when served with Homemade Apple Sauce on the side. YUM-OH!

Provided by Julia Ferguson

Categories     Ribs

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

amount of ingredients depends on your needs.
1 can, jar or small bag sauerkraut
1-2 lb pork spareribs, country style ribs (or your choice of pork ribs)
1 large apple, grated (i like honeycrisp)
water, enough to cover ingredients
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Place ribs in a large pan, add enough water to cover ribs and season with pepper. Cover pan and bring to a boil, turn heat down and simmer until ribs are just tender (fork inserts easily but won't come out without resistance). Add sauerkraut and grated apple, add more water if needed. Cover and bring back to a boil, turn heat down and simmer until ribs are tender and starting to fall apart. Now they are done and ready to serve.
  • 2. VARIATION: Sliced onion can be added to the pot when the sauerkraut is added. Instead of serving mashed potatoes with this meal the potatoes can be cut up in large chunks and added to the pot about 1/2 hr or so before meat is done.

RIBS, SAUERKRAUT AND DUMPLINGS



Ribs, Sauerkraut and Dumplings image

My grandmother gave me this recipe 40 years ago. It was a favorite at all our family gatherings and church socials. Today my children are grown and off on their own, but whenever they come home to visit, they still ask me to prepare this memorable family dinner!

Provided by Taste of Home

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h10m

Yield 6 servings.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Select spareribs that are meaty and have good marbling. Avoid ribs that are too thin or have a lot of bone.
  • Prepare the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. This will help the ribs cook more evenly and will make them more tender.
  • Create a flavorful marinade: Use a combination of spices, herbs, and liquids to create a marinade that will infuse the ribs with flavor. Common ingredients include garlic, onion, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Marinate the ribs for at least 2 hours: The longer you marinate the ribs, the more flavor they will absorb. If you are short on time, you can marinate the ribs for as little as 30 minutes.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow: Bake the ribs at a low temperature for a long period of time. This will help the ribs to become tender and fall off the bone.
  • Add sauerkraut and apples: During the last hour of cooking, add sauerkraut and apples to the baking dish. This will add a sweet and tangy flavor to the ribs.
  • Let the ribs rest: After the ribs are cooked, let them rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ribs.

Conclusion:

Baked spareribs with sauerkraut and apples are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender and packed with flavor. The sauerkraut and apples add a sweet and tangy flavor to the ribs that perfectly complements the rich flavor of the meat. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
