Delicious meal for New Year’s Day? Sauerkraut and pork will bring luck with money and a tasty meal on any day of the week!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons / 30g Cooking oil
- 2½ lb / 1200g Pork chop
- 2 medium / 250g Onion (diced)
- 2 medium / 250g Apple (peeled and diced) (optional)
- 3 cloves / 9g Garlic
- 5 lb / 2000g Sauerkraut
- 1 teaspoon / 1g Black pepper
- 2 teaspoons / 4g Paprika
- 2 teaspoons / 10g Salt
How to make Sauerkraut and pork
- Pour oil into a pan and sear both sides of the pork chop.
- While the meat is being seared, dice the onions, apples and garlic.
- Try the sauerkraut and if it’s too sour rinse it once with water then spread it onto a baking tray.
- Mix the onions, apples and garlic into the sauerkraut.
- Sprinkle black pepper, paprika and salt on top.
- Put the seared pork chop in the middle.
- Put the tray into the 390°F / 200°C oven until its inner temperature reaches 145°F / 63°C. It takes about an hour but to be done depends on personal taste and it may require additional 60 minutes of roasting.
- Before taking it out of the oven, roast it under the broiler for a nice golden brown color for about 15 minutes if necessary. This provides additional flavor to the dish.
- Serve it as it is or add sour cream if desired.
Enjoy!

It’d been nice to have this on the first day of the year and not ❄️ 😀
Well, you can have both just sit next to the oven when you roast it ;P
A kimchi/Korean style variation of this dish sounds like it could be good. I may try that next time. Because, I will make this again. This recipe lends itself to experimentation. Always a good quality. Thanks!
You can’t go wrong with cabbage! Very curious about the kimchi variation myself! Shoot @SunCakeMom a photo next time you make it on Instagram! Thanks a lot!
This looks delicious! I always hated sauerkraut as a kid, but eating it with sausage changed it for me completely! Thank you for sharing this recipe! Can’t wait to get this one started the next time I head to the grocery store. Thank you for sharing!
Nothing can be like bratwurst and sauerkraut… but do check out our cabbage stew too: https://www.suncakemom.com/meals/cabbage-stew It’s a treat!
