Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Generously season the spareribs with salt and pepper. Arrange them in the prepared baking dish. (5 minutes)

03

Step
25 mins

Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the ribs begin to brown. Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (25 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Transfer the ribs to a plate and carefully drain any excess grease from the baking dish. Spread the drained and rinsed sauerkraut evenly over the bottom of the dish. Place the spareribs on top of the sauerkraut, meaty sides facing up. Tuck the quartered potatoes in amongst the ribs. (10 minutes)

05

Step
30 mins

Cover the baking dish tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Return it to the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ribs registers at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). (30 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Carefully remove the foil, being mindful of the hot steam. Serve immediately and enjoy this hearty and flavorful dish. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider browning the spareribs in a skillet before roasting. This will add a delicious crust and deepen the savory notes.
Rinsing the sauerkraut helps to mellow its tanginess. If you prefer a more intense flavor, skip this step.
Feel free to add other root vegetables to the dish, such as carrots or parsnips. They'll roast beautifully alongside the potatoes.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a drizzle of Dijon mustard for added richness and zing.
Ingredients: cooking spray, 1 rack pork spareribs cut into 2-rib portions, salt and pepper to taste, 1 (16 ounce) jar sauerkraut, drained, 4 red potatoes, quartered

    Rinsing the sauerkraut is a great tip, it really cuts down on the sourness.

    Simple ingredients but amazing flavor, you gotta try this!

  • Breanna Cole

    I found that 30 minutes at 350 was a little too long, my potatoes were mushy. I'll reduce the time next time.

  • Francesca Dach

    I added some caraway seeds to the sauerkraut and it was amazing!
