Ribs and Sauerkraut

[JP Z]

I'm really digging this recipe, but I love the BBQ Pit Boys anyways.  Ever since I found the Pot Chicken BBQ I posted on hear so very long ago.

pork spare ribs
4-5lbs sauerkraut 

1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon carraway seed
potatoes
two onions
two apples
one bottle beer
smoked bacon
smoked kielbasa
olive oil

That should be real good from those boys.  That's pretty close to my German Gumbo recipe.  I did the Pot Chicken recipe and it was real good.  good luck.

Your German Gumbo was the first thing.....ok second behind the slow cooker kraut dish that always is mentioned as well!

Hey, those guys swiped my smoked ribs and kraut recipe  .  If you have not tried using smoked ribs and sausage with your sauerkraut you need to try it.  The kraut (I also add some coleslaw) picks up a wonderful flavor.  Here is mine assembled and ready to bake. There is a layer of sliced potatoes and more onion rings that are hidden.

I forgot to mention... some twice smoked hocks or shanks also work great in this dish.  I'll sometimes use my 6 qt Nesco roaster for the second part of the cook.  The smells in the kitchen are unbelievable.

Hey now you are  swiping my recipe .  Man those look great, looks like a whole shank cut in half.  Nice and meaty.  That's a must for my German Gumbo.  I think what really is a plus for that dish is beef broth added.  It helps meld all the flavors together.  i love the broth.  I serve it on a deep plate just so I have a lot of that broth.  good luck.
