Number Of Ingredients 21

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 onions, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, crushed
8 pounds sauerkraut, rinsed and dried
1 (4-pound) smoked pork loin, halved
3 pounds fresh pork belly
1 (2 1/2-to-3-pound) smoked pork butt, halved
2 pounds double-smoked slab bacon
2 pounds apple-smoked slab bacon
8 whole cloves
3 dried bay leaves
12 juniper berries
1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
1 1/2 (750 milliliters) bottles dry Riesling wine
8 weisswurst sausage
8 saucisses de Strasbourg
8 large saucisses de Toulouse or Anduille sausage
15 medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
Coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for serving
Dijon mustard, for serving
Whole-grain mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • In a 24-quart pot with a lid, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook, stirring, until soft and translucent. Add sauerkraut, and stir to combine; transfer half of the mixture to a large bowl.
  • Place pork loin, pork belly, pork butt, and both bacons in pot; top with reserved sauerkraut mixture. Place cloves, bay leaves, juniper berries, and cumin in a piece of cheesecloth; tie with a piece of kitchen twine to enclose. Add to pot along with wine, and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce to a simmer and cover; cook until meats are cooked through and tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Add all sausages to pot, and cook until warmed through, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Generously salt water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Drain.
  • To serve, place mound of sauerkraut in the center of a large platter. Slice meats and add to platter along with potatoes; garnish with parsley and serve with mustards.
