  1. Sauerkraut Sunday: The Carb Loading Edition

    Posted by Burgher Jon
    / May 6, 2012 / Leave a comment
    I decided not to run the Pittsburgh Marathon this year, with all of the fluctuation in my life the last few months I decided it was best to not put that much stress on my body.  I was thinking about everyone who made it out though, so I found a...

    Were you aware that Pittsburgh has a big old German Club on the North Side?  I wasn’t until my weekly Sauerkraut Searching turned up the picture above accompanying the announcement of their Spring Picnic.  I have zero German blood, but the club seems to be quite the historical little piece...
  3. Sauerkraut Sunday: The Baseball Dog Edition

    If you follow this blog you know that I have a passion for baseball and a curious blog-related relationship with sauerkraut.  Well these two passions do meet occassionly, typically on a magical food known as the hot dog.  So when I found this article predicting that Major League Baseball teams...
  4. Sauerkraut Sunday: Braunschweiger Edition

    I am not sure what the relationship is between Braunschweiger and Sauerkraut but with a name like that there has to be one.  The Post-Gazette did an amazingly detailed profile of the “meat” which is made from pureed pork liver, cream, butter, olive oil, garlic, and onlions and I figured...
  5. Sauerkraut Sunday: The Krauty McKraut Edition

    / March 25, 2012 / Leave a comment
    Did you know there’s actually a band named Krauty McKraut.  Take this for what it’s worth from a guy who HATES sauerkraut, but they give kraut a bad name.  If you make it through more than 20 seconds of their concert video (above), I’ll buy you a beer and some...
  6. Sauerkraut Sunday: The St. Patty’s Edition

    / March 18, 2012 / Leave a comment
    I wanted to be festive and post about how the Irish enjoy some good kraut as much as the Germans, but a quick look around Google says that they don’t.  You have to look a little bit closer, and discover that the bond between the Germans and Irish isn’t associated...
  7. Sauerkraut Sunday: Kraut in NYC Edition

    Posted by Burgher Jon
    / March 11, 2012 / Leave a comment
    So I’m off to New York EARLY (my flight is at 5:15) tomorrow morning.  I’m psyched about the trip in part because I love New York.  I’m looking forward to getting back in to the rhythym of checking out little italy, chinatown, and more for some of the best food...
  8. Sauerkraut Sunday: Do you believe?

    Posted by Burgher Jon
    / March 4, 2012 / Leave a comment
    I found an article in the Wall Street Journal this week titled, “Do You Believe in Sauerkraut?”  Unfortunately it has nothing to do with sauerkraut.  Fortunately, it chronicles the reasons for optimism around US Soccer that largely stems from our new, German coach.  It’s an article definitely worth the read....
  9. Sauerkraut Sunday: Sunday Fun Day Edition

    Posted by Burgher Jon
    / February 28, 2012 / Leave a comment
    I was out for a walk yesterday with a buddy of mine and instead of actually writing my Sauerkraut Sunday post, I ended up having a few beers instead of making the post.  It’s a little thing we like to call “Sunday Fun Day.”  That got me thinking, what’s the...

    That picture is an album cover.  I’m going to present it without comment and give you a link to where you can download the CD. On to the purpose of Sauerkraut Sundays… As I go through the week, I use Twitter to send out little updates and links.  I realize that I do...
