Baked Ribs and Sauerkraut

  • Prep 20 min
  • Total 2 hr 40 min
  • Ingredients 8
  • Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 3 lb. pork spareribs or country-style ribs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 (32-oz.) jar sauerkraut, undrained
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tart apples, peeled, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 450°F. Cut ribs into serving-sized pieces. Place in ungreased 13x9-inch pan; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 450°F. for 20 minutes.
  • 2
    Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Remove ribs from pan; drain and discard meat drippings. In same pan, combine sauerkraut and all remaining ingredients; spread evenly. Arrange ribs on top of sauerkraut mixture.
  • 3
    Bake at 350°F. for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until ribs are tender.

  • Pork ribs are very fatty. Baking them for 20 minutes before they're combined with the sauerkraut removes some of the fat and yields a somewhat leaner (but still super-moist and flavorful) meal.
