Title: New Year's Dinner - Bavarian Style!
Post by: TentHunteR on January 02, 2017, 10:30:23 AM
For New Year's dinner we did the traditional Pork & Sauerkraut - Bavarian style (which is is, undoubtedly, one of my favorite ways)!


While my son got the MAK out and ready, I seasoned a 5 lb pack of pork shoulder steaks with just some salt, pepper and a little nutmeg and put them on the MAK 1 Star to roast & catch some smoke at 245° for about an hour.

The pork steaks were layered in a pan with some lightly rinsed kraut, a couple apples and seasoned with some caraway seeds.  A little beer was added for liquid, then it was covered tightly with foil and put in a hot oven to braise for about 1 1/2 hours until the steaks for fork tender.

Pam, that sounds like a good plan!  You bring the homemade kraut and I'll make some fresh homemade German-style Brats and buns to put it on!  Heck, I'll even make some homemade mustard too! 8)

A famous man once said, "In heaven there is no beer, that's why we drink it here!"
Well actually a lot of guys said it, and none of them were famous! :D
