Spareribs With Sauerkraut Boiled Potatoes Recipes

SLOW COOKER RIBS, POTATOES AND SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Remove the membrane off the back of the ribs by sticking a finger under it in the middle of the ribs, life up and pull. It may not come off in one piece. You can see how I remove this in the video.
• Preheat the oven to Broil.
• Cut the ribs into single rib pieces. Place the cut onion onto a baking sheet. Add the ribs on top of the onion. Drizzle over the oil. Sprinkle over the salt, pepper and thyme over the ribs. Add the garlic cloves.
• Place the baking sheet into the oven under the broiler. Leave in the oven until the ribs are slightly browned. Mine took about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them so they don't burn.
• Add the sliced potatoes to the slow cooker. Add the contents of the baking sheet on top of the potatoes. Drain and rinse the sauerkraut if desired. Add the sauerkraut on top of everything.
• Pour over the chicken broth.
• Cover and cook on HIGH for 5 hours or for 7-8 on low.
• Serve and enjoy!

SAUERKRAUT AND RIBS

Steps:

• 1. Place ribs in a large pan, add enough water to cover ribs and season with pepper. Cover pan and bring to a boil, turn heat down and simmer until ribs are just tender (fork inserts easily but won't come out without resistance). Add sauerkraut and grated apple, add more water if needed. Cover and bring back to a boil, turn heat down and simmer until ribs are tender and starting to fall apart. Now they are done and ready to serve.
• 2. VARIATION: Sliced onion can be added to the pot when the sauerkraut is added. Instead of serving mashed potatoes with this meal the potatoes can be cut up in large chunks and added to the pot about 1/2 hr or so before meat is done.
