Really great recipe Peter! My parents are German, so I grew up on this stuff, but didn't like it when I was a kid. I didn't have any apple juice, so I just added a bit of light brown sugar. To make this a more complete meal, I removed the chops after browning and fried some bacon pieces. I then added my onions and garlic and then the kraut and caraway seeds, along with a good bottle of beer and some chicken stock. While that was simmering, I placed my chops in a casserole and topped them with thinly sliced potatoes. The kraut then went on top of the potatoes, I covered with foil and placed it in the oven for about and hour and a half. The "broth" in this dish was so flavourful and the meat was extremely tender. Hubby was thrilled. Thanks so much!!!!

Used different ingredients.
I have been making a recipe that is very close to this for years. However instead of apple juice, I use APPLE SAUCE and a few tablespoons of BROWN SUGAR! It really gives it nice flavour and my pork chops have always come out moist. Enjoy!

Easy
my oma (gran) made pork and sauerkraut every New Year. She'd have loved this recipe. When I served it New Year's Day, my husband said, "You sure don't have to wait a year to make this again." It was great. Note: If you use kraut with little or no juice -- you may want to add a little water or increase the apple juice.

Easy
The chops were very tender and tasty however, I would suggest using apple sauce instead of the sliced apples, they went to mush. Use quartered apples adding them later in the cooking process. This recipe benefits from the apple flavour and the appearance of the apples.
