PORK ROAST AND SAUERKRAUT



Pork Roast and Sauerkraut image

My family which is mostly German-Irish ate the same meal for New Year's every year of my life. It consisted of pork roast, sauerkraut, kielbasa and mashed potatoes. We ate the pork (pork roast and kielbasa) because pigs are a symbol of progress. Pigs push forward, rooting themselves in the ground before moving, and we need to move into the New Year in the same way. We eat sauerkraut, as it's believed it will bring blessings and wealth for the new year. It also reminds us that with the good comes the bitter as well. We eat potatoes to remind us that even as poor men we still had potatoes to eat.

EMERIL'S NEVER ENOUGH PORK BEER-BRAISED SAUERKRAUT



Emeril's Never Enough Pork Beer-Braised Sauerkraut image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 pounds fresh or jarred sauerkraut
4 tablespoons unsalted butter or duck, chicken, or goose fat
1/4 pound apple-cured bacon, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
3 medium yellow onions, peeled and sliced
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
8 juniper berries, lightly crushed
1 head garlic, split in 1/2 crosswise
2 ham hocks, scored
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups dark or amber beer (recommended: Abita Amber)
1 pound andouille or garlic sausage, kielbasa, or knockwurst, cut into 3-inch lengths
1 pound bratwurst or veal sausage, cut into 3-inch lengths
4 thin boneless smoked pork chops (or 8 very small boneless smoked pork chops)
Creole, whole-grain, or Dijon mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Place the sauerkraut in a colander and rinse briefly to remove some of the salt from the brine-don't rinse it too much, or you will lose a lot of the flavor. (Alternatively, if the sauerkraut is not excessively salty, use as is.) Press to release most of the excess liquid and set aside. In a large nonreactive skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium-low heat and add the bacon. Cook until most of the fat is rendered, about 4 minutes. Add the onions and continue to cook until they are soft but not browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon-onion mixture to a nonreactive roasting pan or large ovenproof Dutch oven. Add the drained sauerkraut and toss to combine. Using a small piece of cheesecloth, make a bouquet garni with the thyme, bay leaves, peppercorns, juniper berries, and garlic and place in the baking dish. Add the ham hocks, chicken stock, and beer and stir to combine. Cover the casserole and bake, undisturbed, until ham hocks are mostly tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over high heat and brown the sausages on both sides. Set aside. Brown the pork chops and set aside.
  • When the hocks are mostly tender, remove the casserole from the oven. Place the sausages on top of the sauerkraut. If the liquid has reduced to less than 2/3, add a bit more water. Cover the casserole and return it to the oven. Cook for about 30 minutes, or until the sausages are tender and heated through. Add the pork chops and press them into the sauerkraut. Cover and return to the oven and cook until pork chops are heated through and tender, about 30 minutes longer. Remove the casserole from the oven and discard the bouquet garni. Serve immediately, with each person receiving some of each of the sausages, part of a hock, part of a pork chop and some of the sauerkraut. Pass the mustard at the table.

PORK, SAUERKRAUT AND BEER

Provided by Audrey M

Categories     Pork

Time 8h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

32 ounces undrained sauerkraut
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
12 ounces dark beer or 12 ounces ale (I use a dark Mexican beer)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
paprika
4 lbs pork roast, of your choice

Steps:

  • Mix the sugar throughout the sauerkraut.
  • Pour undrained sauerkraut on the bottom of your slow cooker.
  • Next, pour dark beer over sauerkraut.
  • Blend together the salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika.
  • Rub spice mixture onto roast.
  • With fat side up, place pork roast in the middle of slow cooker.
  • Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours or High for 5 to 6 hours.

Tips:

  • Select the right cut of pork: For this recipe, a pork shoulder or butt roast is recommended. These cuts are well-marbled and have a good amount of connective tissue, which will break down during cooking and result in a tender and flavorful roast.
  • Sear the pork before roasting: Searing the pork helps to develop a nice crust and lock in the juices. Make sure to sear the pork over medium-high heat until it is browned on all sides.
  • Use a good quality beer: The beer that you use will add flavor to the roast, so choose a beer that you enjoy drinking. A dark beer, such as a stout or porter, will give the roast a rich and malty flavor, while a lighter beer, such as a pilsner or lager, will result in a more delicate flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs: The spices and herbs that you use will also contribute to the flavor of the roast. Feel free to experiment with different combinations until you find one that you like.
  • Cook the roast until it is fall-apart tender: The pork roast should be cooked until it is fall-apart tender. This will take about 2-3 hours, depending on the size of the roast.

Conclusion:

Pork roast with apples, beer, and sauerkraut is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. The pork is tender and flavorful, the apples add a touch of sweetness, the beer adds a malty flavor, and the sauerkraut adds a tangy kick. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
