Apple Spiced Sauerkraut |
Add all ingredients to a saucepan, add a lid and cook on low for about 40 minutes.
The meal was delicious. The Beef tasted somewhat like Pastrami, but even better, spicier. The dumplings were indescribable. The colors were beautiful and we left the skins on, so finding bits of skin with the bacon was a treat. The sauce was the best sauce I have ever eaten. And the Sauerkraut - I like sauerkraut already, but this was a dream, with bits of apple and an out-of-this-world flavor. We had Virgil's Root Beer - Zero with a bit of +Jagermeister USA Liqueur to top it off!
