So I picked up a 14 lb slab of pork belly that my friends paid for. They love my apple pie spiced bacon so much they will pay for it.
So, got the slab of belly, cut off the skin and save for future use, and cut off the ribs, which is my bonus and they don't need to know.
Going to make with the ribs a recipe my mom used to make and haven't had in years.
I cook the ribs in with sauerkraut, then in the later part add barley, cook till meat is falling off the bone tender.
Then just serve it up with some fresh homemade mashed potatoes.
My fathers side was Polish and my moms was Czechoslovakian, so not sure which side this came from.
Anyone else know of this simple but flavorable dish and which side it came from?
Old Dinner Recipe
I know I decided to search a little myself and yes most European countries have it, I was surprised to see that.
I have a feeling it may be more on my mothers side from Czechoslovakia.
Oh what I made tonight was so very similar to what I remember, I can't explain but I think I know what to do to make it like mama.
Just an old peasant recipe.
