Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 smoked, fully-cooked pork chops (such as Smithfield®)
1/3 cup chopped onion
1 (16 ounce) jar sauerkraut (such as Silver Floss®), mostly drained
1 apple – peeled, cored, and diced
1/2 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon bacon grease
1 clove garlic, minced
5 juniper berries
1 bay leaf
Directions
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Quickly sear meat for 2 minutes on each side, and remove from pan. Reduce heat to medium, add onions, and saute for 3 minutes.
Stir in sauerkraut, apple, beef broth, bacon grease, garlic, juniper berries, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Remove bay leaf, add chops back to skillet, and nestle in the kraut. Simmer just until chops are warmed up, 3 to 5 minutes. Cooking further will dry them out.
