#1 The Americanized version of this is also good. First, get sliced boneless pork shoulder, which is cheaper than chops, but about as good, then dice it. Thoroughly brown it in bacon grease, then add a couple of cups of water and a large container of sauerkraut. Simmer for 30-45 minutes, which helps tenderize the pork. (I suggest using some other type of sauerkraut than "Bavarian", which is a bit sweet.) Some low-carb applesauce (it does exist) on the side and low-carb beer(!)(which also exists and isn't half bad (though some would say "3/4ths")). Prosit!

#3 Sounds good but I bet the farts are really bad.
