Expert Tips

Barley is one of the first grains ever cultivated. Pearl barley, the most common variety, has the hull, most of the bran and some of the germ removed to shorten cooking time. Barley is available in both regular and quick-cooking varieties. For this recipe, use regular and not the quick-cooking variety.

    This was my first time making this and I will say it was easy but the prep time was more than 5 min, I did sub low sodium Chicken stock for the water to give it more flavor and added fresh parsley as a garnish.

    I don't know who came up with the BBQ sauce, it did not come from Germany. This dish when cooked German style show be more of a gravy than a sauce. We have a wonderful German restraunt in OKC called the Rathsceller. I had this dish there and it was wonderful. If you ever spend any time in OKC check it out. You do have to have a resversation. The people who own the place are from Germany and the hospitality is wonderful!

    I finally found barley at a health food store. Used it made this dish but for some reason it was really lacking something. I just love sauerkraut, but I won't be making this again. It came out soupy and I wasn't impressed.
