This is a wintertime favorite in our home. The down-home flavors of pork and sauerkraut are complemented by potatoes and apples. The aroma is irresistible as it cooks. Ingredients:
2 cans (14 ounces each) sauerkraut, undrained |
1 cup thinly sliced onion |
2 medium tart apples, peeled and sliced |
1/2 cup dark corn syrup |
2 bay leaves |
1 teaspoon caraway seeds |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
3 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks |
6 bone-in pork loin chops ( 7 ounces each) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the sauerkraut, onion, apples, corn syrup, bay leaves, caraway and pepper. Spoon half into a 5-qt. slow cooker; top with potatoes. 2. Broil pork chops 6 in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until browned; place over potatoes. Spoon remaining sauerkraut mixture over pork. 3. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour. Reduce heat to low; cook 4-5 hours longer or until meat is tender. Discard bay leaves. Yield: 6 servings. |
