Instructions

Layer kraut, apple, onion and sprinkle with brown sugar, carroway seeds and black pepper. Add beer. Place pork chop on top. Lock lid and bring to high pressure and cook for 8 minutes. Remove from heat and allow pressure to drop naturally. Scrub and slice potato and place on top of pork chop. Replace lid and bring cooker to high pressure and cook for 3 minutes.
