INGREDIENTS

  • 3 thick slices of bacon, diced
  • 2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 pounds kielbasa sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 25 ounces sauerkraut, rinsed, drained and chopped (about 5 cups)
  • 1/2 head of cabbage, chopped (about 5 cups)
  • 1 large apple, peeled, cored and grated
  • 1 tsp allspice berries
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns
  • 2 bay leaves
  • salt and pepper



DIRECTIONS

  1. Cook the bacon in a dutch oven over medium heat until crispy, place cooked bacon on a plate and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the pot.
  2. Add the pork shoulder and kielbasa to the dutch oven and cook until well browned, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Return the bacon to the dutch oven along with the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until onions are just beginning to brown.
  4. Stir in the beef and chicken broth then scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon or spatula to release any stuck on bits.
  5. Stir in the sauerkraut, cabbage, apple, allspice, peppercorns, bay leaves, and 1/2 tsp salt into the pot.
  6. Cover the pot then reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 hours.
  7. Season with salt & pepper to taste.

NOTES

For best flavor refrigerate after cooking and reheat the next day to allow flavors to meld. Goes great with a crusty loaf of bread.
