recipe reviews for:

Pork Chops and Sauerkraut

“My mother made this dish years ago, when she was a young girl living in Germany. Later on, she continued to make it for our family. Today when I cook it, the wonderful aroma of sauerkraut fills the house, bringing back many warm memories for me. Mother usually served plain boiled potatoes with this dish, but for a special treat she'd serve steamed dumplings.”

Wonderful recipe. My wife and 4 year old do not like cooked apples, so I used fresh sliced mushrooms instead. Great flavor, pork comes out nice and tender.

I bake almost the same dish, except I substitute one 12oz can of beer for the broth....Also a recipe given to me by a German friend.

Very tasty and I didn't even use all of the ingredients! I substituted the caraway and celery salt (only because I didn't have either) for onion and garlic powders. I only simmered the 30 minutes instead of 45 and I added the apple pieces and sauerkraut for the last 15. It all simmered together with plenty of chicken broth left for juicy, tasty chops! The bacon pieces topped it off and my family loved it!

Apart from omitting the celery seed - didn't have any, and I'm not a huge fan anyway - I made this as written, and it turned out nicely. The flavors came together very well, even the apple which I had been a little bit skeptical about. Thanks, Erika. I'd make this again!

Loved the recipe.I used a Fugii apple and Silver Floss bagged sauerkraut drained. The flavor was excellent I think the celery seed was that little something extra that made it taste so good. Lil

I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out great. The flavors melded well together, and the taste was very mild - not strong like plain sauerkraut. The bacon added at the end was a nice touch. My husband loved this. I will definitely make it again.
