How to Make Barbara's Country Style Ribs Sauerkraut And Potatoes

  1. Season 2 lbs country-style pork ribs with salt and pepper.
  2. In a Dutch oven or large pot, brown the ribs over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
  3. Add 1 cup of water to the pot, bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until ribs are tender (approximately 60-90 minutes).
  4. Stir in 1 large (2 lb) bag of sauerkraut, 1 teaspoon caraway seeds, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Add 2 lbs small red potatoes, peeled and quartered.
  6. If using a Dutch oven, continue cooking until the potatoes are tender (about 30-45 minutes).
