Looks great. I make choucrout once in awhile, and this looks like a less intensive way to get a similar dish. I am of 100 percent German and Swiss heritage, and love all things sauerkraut. After about seven generations here in the US, it’s wonderful that some of our old German dishes are still made in my family. I find the different regional takes on recipes to be fascinating, and because our German American families originated in various parts of Germany, I’m sure they took that joint knowledge and adapted recipes once here in the US based on what was available. In my family things like sausages and chicken and dumplings have stood the test of time. However, to my knowledge my grandmothers never made dishes like sauerbraten or remolaud. Our church, which was founded 180+ years ago by German immigrants, just had our annual sausage supper (with delightful sauerkraut and homemade mashed potatoes). I carry on the family chicken and dumplings, potato salad and Christmas stollen, and for all of us the smell of bacon drippings, onion and apple cider vinegar is heaven on earth. Happy to have come across your channel and will enjoy trying some new-old traditional recipes.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful personal experiences and love for traditional German dishes!

It's great to see that these dishes are still enjoyed today by people of all backgrounds. I'm glad that you found my channel and hope that you will enjoy trying out some of the recipes. If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Happy cooking!
You are right! lol I really forgot to mention and show it in the video, but I served the dish with mustard to my family. My American sister in law would get a big chuckle out of this, she always teases me that I sure love my mustard. And now, I FORGOT it in the video!!!!
My Mom makes a dish that is a poor imitation of this that her Grandma made. She just took pork spare ribs and sauerkraut and boiled it all day, then served it with mashed potatoes. No spices, no seasoning, and no flavor. I don't care for that, but I will make this version. The funny thing is my Mom's Grandma was known as a poor cook so it should not surprise me that her version is terrible.
So nice sharing 👍
Thank you! Cheers!

Spices are really always the key to make a dish flavorful. I hope you will enjoy my recipe.
