Reviews
I have been making pork chops and kraut for about 40 years. Of German descent and never heard of using brown sugar. Wow! My husband used to pretty much just tolerate this dish, but he really likes it this way, and I super love it! So easy and so good!
My Mother made this for our family when I was a child. Always enjoyed this.
Great recipe that I have used several times. Lived in Germany for a few years while in Army and this is authentic. The only thing I do differently, which I learned in Germany, was the Germans always lightly rinse their Kraut and add apples or in a pinch applesauce to their kraut. But your right it has to be Bavarian.
So delicious. Brown sugar - brilliant. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the potatoes absorbed the flavors as well. I did lightly saute a sliced onion and add it on top. Perfect. Great company meal or quick family dinner.
This was wonderful. My husband was in Germany a total of 11 years while in the military and he loved this dish.
