Pork Chops & Sauerkraut ...p48

Well, I was suspect the critic would enjoy this meal and surely she did.  A simple, yet satisfying, meal - very easy to prepare, just 3 main ingredients!  All the years I've made this, I've never added water to the pan as the recipe calls for, and I'm not quite sure it's needed - seemed like a lot of liquid to me.  I also never added the brown sugar before which was a very nice touch. 

Great around Ocktoberfest and if you like sauerkraut, you'll love this!

Hardy Appetit!
