German Style Pork Butt Meal?

[Matt Warren]

Having company for a smoke next week that will mainly feature a butt roast. I'm looking for recommendations that will make it more German, in honor of Oktoberfest.

I'm thinking some Spaten and/or Riesling, but lost beyond that. What are traditional German pork dinners that would fit?

Thanks for suggestions.

OHHH.......my fav...warm Germany Potato salad. Some BittBerger beers.....a chilled bottle of apple whiskey. Instead of pulled pork..........smoke some sausages. Smoked cabbage. OK.....LOTS of beer.

Weiner Schnitzel is the only one I know of ... it's not a weiner at all but a pork cutlet pounded very thin, breaded, fried served with some sort of gravy ... quite tasty

Shawn,

Not trying to be a know-it-all, but weiner schnitzel is actually made out of veal. Spent a couple of years in Germany while I was in the Army. Beautiful country, some good hearty food too......Take it easy.

Stumbled across a recent post that may be of interest to you. Also, I remember Mom making baked ribs in sauerkraut. Sure seems German. Let me know if you are interested and I'll get the recipe from her.

Shawn,
My father does this too, but he adds a sliced up granny smith apple in with the sauerkraut and ribs. It's oooooohh so good!

Thanks for the suggestions. BTW, I have a nice venison steak that I'm going to cook up weiner schnitzel style right now!
