Pork Ribs And Sauerkraut Hilltop Style Recipes

Steps:

• Place sauerkraut in a large roasting pan.
• Place ribs on top of kraut and add the chicken broth- pouring it over the ribs.
• Cover roaster and slow roast in 300 degree oven for about 2 1/2 hours. Shorten cooking time by raising temperature to 375 degrees for 1 1/2 hours if you are in a hurry.
• Watch out when you remove the lid because the aroma may drive you to dig in before it's out of the oven!
• Serve individually with mashed potatoes, placing some of the kraut and juice on the potatoes. Or serve family style with ribs on top of kraut.
• Extended cooking tends to melt the kraut into the broth so if you are cooking it for a long time, add even more kraut. It's good as a leftover too.
