KIELBASA, SAUERKRAUT, AND DUMPLINGS



Kielbasa, Sauerkraut, and Dumplings image

A very hearty one pot meal that was a childhood favorite. It can also feed a crowd by adding just a little more to the pot. Also look for a good quality polish kielbasa if you can find a butcher shop that makes their own all the better. I have a couple in the Cleveland area that will ship to California for me with a minimum...

PORK, SAUERKRAUT AND DUMPLINGS



Pork, Sauerkraut and Dumplings image

Pork roast and kraut slow-cooked and served with dumplings and sauerkraut 'gravy.' This recipe was from my mother's very German family. She always served it with mashed potatoes, creamed peas, and applesauce. Sometimes she baked the roast and kraut separately. We always have this on New Year's Day. I usually double the recipe for the dumplings. My mother didn't make hers with beer, but I have added this over the years to taste.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (3 pound) pork shoulder roast, well-trimmed and trimmings reserved
2 (20 ounce) cans sauerkraut, undrained
½ cup applesauce
¼ cup brown sugar, or to taste
2 (12 fluid ounce) cans or bottles beer, divided
3 cups water
1 (14 ounce) can kraut juice
2 cups all-purpose baking mix (such as Bisquick®)
⅔ cup milk

Steps:

  • Place pork roast into the bottom of a slow cooker and cover with sauerkraut with juice, applesauce, brown sugar, and 1 can beer. Set cooker to High, cover, and cook 3 hours. Reduce heat to Low and cook 4 more hours.
  • About 1 1/2 hours before serving time, heat water with reserved pork trimmings in a large saucepan over low heat and simmer to make broth, about 45 minutes. Strain broth, discard trimmings, and pour remaining can of beer and kraut juice into the simmering broth. Bring the broth to a boil.

  • To make sure the dumplings are cooked through, simmer them for at least 10 minutes.
