Slow Cooker Country Style Ribs & Sauerkraut

This recipe is a revival from years ago when I used to eat red meat 4-5 times a week. Even though I now limit myself to having red meat maybe twice a month, not everyone else does and this recipe is just too easy and too flavorful to not share. Enjoy, meat lovers! 

So we all know that slow cooking is the bomb, right? Well, dear foodies.... this one simply takes the cake! Five ingredients, no special seasoning and prep so easy you can set this up before morning coffee if need be :-) Don't let the Easy Button fool you though.... This dish is absolutely brimming with flavor!!!


Ingredients:
· 1 27 oz can sauerkraut
· 1 onion - chopped
· 1 red-skinned apple - diced
· 2 to 3 pounds country style pork ribs
· 1 bottle beer (
Smithwick's or Killian's Red preferred)

Preparation:
Put sauerkraut in bottom of crock pot. Add the chopped onion and diced apple. No need to peel the apple... we want to keep the good nutrients. Mix with sauerkraut and even off the top. 
Brown ribs in a sear pan, layer them on top of kraut mixture and pour beer over all. 
Cover and cook 6 to 8 hours on low setting. Serve with a simple tossed salad.

Blessed be... and happy cooking!
