3 to 4 Pounds Country Style pork ribs, 32 Ounces Sauerkraut
Turn on low and cook ribs and kraut for 8 hours. On high cook for 5 hours. However, I recommend low heat and slow. The longer cooking time suits this recipe well as the meat will still be juicy yet fork tender.

Slow cooker time and temperature.

8 – 10 hours on low, 5 hours on high.

Make this in the oven.

Cover with heavy aluminum foil and bake at a low temperature. Heat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 90 minutes to 2 hours.

Make this in a pressure cooker or instant pot.

For an even quicker version of this recipe, follow the directions of your machine. However, this is what works for me. Close lid, then turn Venting Knob to Sealing position. Pressure Cook at High Pressure for 15-20 minutes + 10 minutes Natural Release. After natural releasing for 10 minutes, carefully turn the Venting Knob to Venting Position to release the remaining pressure. Open the lid carefully.
