Sour kraut and ribs?

This combination made me nervous.But as the saying goes whatever momma wants momma gets.


It is time for a few more brew skies after that request.Guess it is better than ice cream and pickles. Since all of the kids are out of the nest and have their own thing going on every thing should be ok.

Bill, nothing wrong with that. I grew up having pork and sauerkraut on New Years. I think your ribs look delicious!

G'ma and mom (now me) always make Sauerkraut Soup... ribs, sauerkraut, roux and red kidney beans! I love it on a chilly day! It was the first thing I made using my dutch oven on the egg!
-
That looks great. How'd you cook the pork? I can see a dutch oven cook with Kassler Ripchen or ribs or kielbasa in the future!

I cooked them at 275 indirect for two hours meat side up,one hour meat side down rubbed with dizzy pig ragin river rub with some mustard slathered on first.That was three hours total.
Then laid out a sheet of foil and put one third cup honey spread all over then added one third cup brown sugar sprinkled all over the honey.Put the ribs meat side down on the foil then add the same mix to the bone side of the ribs.Add 1/2 cup liquid in the foil beer or apple juice seal up and cook for ninety minutes.Watch out for steam when you open the pouch for the final cooking step.
Get the Egg up to 350ish and cook for another half hour flipping few times to get a little bark on the meat then spread your favorite sauce over and chow down. -
Man, that looks great!!!!

Bill, wow!
Question, how did all of the rubs and liquids used on the ribs "go" with the kraut, i.e., taste wise any conflict? Normally, it's a plain jane cook on pork with kraut, with the expection of the smoked (normally w/apple) ribchen.
I've very interested in your reply as I'd like to cook German receipes on the egg.
Thanks! -

Like a marriage made in heaven.The kraut recipe that I do is as follows.
One large can of kraut rinsed one or two times.
One half of a medium sized onion diced.
Three strips of bacon.
Fry the bacon and let cool then crumble it up.Set aside.
Discard the bacon fat all but about one teaspoon or just enough to coat the bottom of the pan.If to much fat is in the pan it will become greasy.Dump the diced onion in and cooked till they brown up.
Put the kraut in a small dutch oven or skillet and mix in the onion and bacon all through the kraut.
Put one cup of beer in the pot and cook for about one hour at 300/350.Make sure that the liquid does not evaporate and add as needed to keep about a 1/2 inch of liquid in the bottom of the pan.Add a little salt and pepper to taste.
I thought that beer is used frequently in German cooking.With my last name being Conrad you know that German cooking is in the family. -
All of your stuff looks good thirdeye and I betcha that sausage adds another element to the flavor of the kraut.
-
Bill,
I'm going to save your receipe and use the next tme I make ribs. My last name is Hohenstein so German cooking is in my family also.
Thanks! -
