Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds sauerkraut
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
12 peppercorns, or 1/4 teaspoon coarsely cracked pepper
2 carrots, scraped and cubed
1 pound smoked pork butt (boneless), trimmed and thickly sliced
4-6 pork shoulder chops, bone removed
1 cup Rhine or Alsatian wine
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/2 pound knockwurst

Steps:

  • Combine the sauerkraut, caraway seeds, peppercorns or cracked pepper and carrots. Place in the bottom of a large kettle. Arrange the pork butt slices and the shoulder chops over the top of the sauerkraut. Add the wine and salt, cover tightly and cook over very low heat 2-3 hours. This dish tastes best if cooked a day ahead, as it should be prepared at least 6 hours before serving time and allowed to stand. Reheat, adding knockwurst, approximately 20 minutes before serving. Serve with boiled or mashed potatoes.

I'm not a big fan of sauerkraut, but this recipe changed my mind. The combination of the tangy sauerkraut, smoky bacon, and sweet apples is amazing. I'll definitely be making this again.

This choucroute Alsatian recipe is a winner! The flavors are rich and complex, and the sauerkraut is perfectly tangy. I served it with roasted potatoes and a green salad, and it was a hit with my family.
