Fruit and Vegetable Pork
SUBMITTED BY:
Shirl Soots
"I had apples that needed using and a small can of sauerkraut in my cupboard and went from there. A little different, delicious and so easy. The sauerkraut, apples and brown sugar give the chops a sweet and sour flavor."

This was very good and satisfying. I followed the advice of a previous reviewer and added a cup of water, then let simmer for about an hour. I added an extra tablespoon of cornstarch due to the extra liquid. The porkchops were very tender and my husband said they were the best he had ever eaten. Thanks for the recipe!

Really good recipe, but you know that every cook has to add their own personality to the dish, so here are the "enhancements" that I made. I used all ingredients except the vegetable oil and cornstarch, and I used a 12 ounce package of refrigerated sauerkraut, so I increased the brown sugar to 3/4 cup. I sprayed a skillet with Pam, and browned the chops. I removed the chops, and sauteed the onion in the same pan until tender. In the meantime, I mixed the kraut, brown sugar and apples, added the sauteed onion, deglazed the pan and added the drippings to the kraut mixture and seasoned it with salt and pepper. I love my slow cooker, so I place the chops in the bottom, and poured the rest of the mixture over the top. Cooked it on low for about 6 hours. The chops were tender, the sauerkraut nicely sweet and sour and my husband ate every bite, which is my barometer of a good recipe. Definitely added this one to my recipe box. Thanks!

This was so fast and easy... and delicious! I must admit, when I saw the results sitting in the pan, I was more than a little nervous. But that first bite was a pleasant surprise. Good German fare!

This is a real man pleaser. It works with almost any cut of prok. I used it with country ribs.

This was great. Don't add extra water, unless your sauerkraut is very dry. We found the sauerkraut liquid was more than adequate. I used a mix of golden delicious and granny smith apples with this. The flavor was WONDERFUL!

This was great and easy, will definately make it again. Didn't change a thing. However, I had very large pork chops (better for stuffing) and I would recommend making this recipe with thinner pork chops.

Very yummy, I just threw it all into the crockpot (minus the corn starch) on high for 4 or so hours and the chops were very (almost falling apart) tender. Very good with buttered egg noodles.

Excellent! This was very easy and relatively quick, would've been great for a weeknight. I actually used pears instead of apples, since that was what I had in the house. It probably made it a bit milder than it would have been with apples, but no less delicious. Kids loved too!
