Wegman's Pork Chops with Sauerkraut and Apples

It's officially Autumn! The tress are turning in colour, the temperature has dropped, the mornings are dark again and the rain hasn't stopped - even though this is more of a Spring feature! All the cookery shows are making apples the highlight of their recipes so when I saw this in the Wegmans (grocery food chain here in NY, not disimilar to Tesco or Sainsburys) I knew I wanted to try Pork Chops with Sauerkraut and Apples.

If you've ever had a rueben or tasted sauerkraut, you know that its sour, fermented taste is delicious. The recipe also included pork chops and we hadn't had those in a while so it made sense for a weekday dinner. 

Yay or Nay: Yay

I thought I would like this, then while making it I didn't think I would, and then once I sat down with the finished meal I swayed back to liking this. The apples and sourness of the sauerkraut complement the meaty pork. A quick and easy mid-week dinner (that ended up being pushed to the weekend!).

Tip: I would rinse the sauerkraut before cooking next time to take away some of the tang!
