Here is a Corned Beef and Sauerkraut combination that is particularly good on a cool fall evening. The tanginess of the Kraut with a well spiced corned beef is a belly warmer of the first degree. This one Comes from “The Cupboard Drawer” and is a personal favorite of mine. Do Enjoy…

2 Lbs (4 Cups) Sauerkraut

1 tsp Caraway seed

12 oz Corned Beef cut into slices (you can use canned but I like left over and cut it into squared slices)
