This is the traditional New Year's Day meal I learned from my husband, whose family originated in central Pennsylvania. It's wonderful, especially served with mashed potatoes and applesauce.

SLOW-COOKER PORK, SAUERKRAUT AND KIELBASA

Slow-Cooker Pork, Sauerkraut and Kielbasa image

Delight the hearty eaters in your life with this, the ultimate meat and potatoes dish. Actually, we should say meats, since it contains both country-style pork ribs and kielbasa sausage, which taste mighty fine served alongside creamy Yukon Gold potatoes. Keeping all those richly-flavored ingredients in check, is the zesty Dijon marinade and tangy sauerkraut. So while this certainly is not a light meal, it is well-balanced. The only thing it might be missing is a slice of brown rye bread and a stein of your favorite Oktoberfest brew. Prost!
