Gemüse
for 18 qt roaster:
5# potatoes (cubed) [I prefer red]
1 gal Great Northern beans (drained & rinsed)
2 gal sauerkraut (slightly drained)
3.5# sausage (sliced) [usually country]
3.5# pork (cubed)
3 big onions (diced) [usually yellow]
1/2# butter
seasonings to taste
Boil potatoes for about 5 min. Brown meat & onion.
Put beans, potatoes, meat, kraut, butter & seasonings in roaster.
Cook @ 325 for about 3 hrs. Stir once or twice. (Make sure it doesn't get dry. May add some water if needed and/or decrease temp. )
This is my dad's recipe, which is sold abundantly at Oktoberfest each year. To make a smaller batch, say 6 qt roaster, just use 1/3 the ingredients. Sometimes I get crazy & add some butter beans!
