I am sharing a recipe for flavored sauerkraut done in a slow cooker. It has bits of meat, potatoes, kraut, cabbage and tomato in it.
Not overly meat heavy, it is not so much a main dish in itself. But you could serve this with something like pork chops. Or smoked sausage. Maybe even add a bit more meat.
I like this with sausages personally. Some brats or metts done up on buns. And maybe some German potato salad on the side too.
