Food / Help with Grandma's saurkraut soup recipe [10]

Thanks for your help everyone. I think it must be a sauerkraut soup I am looking for and I found a recipe that sounds right. Also in my first post I should have wrote that my daughter enjoys stories about her Polish Great Grandmother.

2 pounds sauerkraut, drained
1-2 pounds pork ribs
1 quart tomatoes, cut up with juice (a large 28-ounce can is fine)
1 medium onion, sliced
1-3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tablespoon sugar (optional)
water, to your preferred thick/thin consistency (about 8 cups)
salt and black pepper to taste
paprika to taste
Combine all ingredients in a large pot, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer 2-3 hours, until the meat readily falls off the bones.

Pick out the bones, correct seasoning, and serve. This is excellent with homemade bread. It is also really good with boiled potatoes on the side.

Food / Help with Grandma's saurkraut soup recipe [10]

Hello, I need help bigtime with finding a recipe. We always called it Kapusta but I am starting to think we were wrong since I can't find it on the internet. My darling grandmother used to make this soup and I never got the recipe before she passed. It was a soup and there was saurkraut, tomatoes, and some kind of meat that starts out being on the bone. It was watery like soup and did not have potatoes, beans, cream kielbasa, bacon or mushrooms. The broth was red in color. I'd love to make this for my daughter who loves to hear stories about her Polish Grandmother. Thanks in advance, I am new to this website and it is great.
