Apple Sauerkraut Pork Chops
This recipe is a variation on a household favorite but modified to be more Anglo-Saxon.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of 1" thick boneless pork chops
- 3 medium onions, chopped
- 3 tart apples, such as Granny Smith, cored and sliced
- 1 15-oz can sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon (opt)
- 1/2 tsp pepper (opt)
- 1 tbsp honey (opt)
Instructions
- Place onions on bottom of crockpot.
- Layer apple slices on top of onions.
- Sprinkle spices on top of apples.
- Slightly brown pork chops on a nonstick skillet for 3-4 minutes. Place over apples.
- Top pork chops with sauerkraut. (See notes below if you are not a fan of sauerkraut.)
- Cover crockpot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or until pork chops are tender.
Notes
- This crockpot recipe would replicate the process of slow cooking with a cauldron over a low fire.
- If you are not a fan of sauerkraut, reduce the amount of the kraut and replace that volume with more apples and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
