In Germany, pork isn’t just popular—it’s practically a food group. And in my kitchen, it’s the star of many family favorites. From crispy Schnitzel to juicy Schweinebraten, these are the kinds of dishes that bring everyone running to the table (with extra gravy, of course). And don’t get me started on Schweinshaxe—crispy, crackly, and absolutely worth the wait.

Yes, some of these recipes were once all-day affairs, but this Oma has learned a few tricks over the years. You’ll find easier versions here that keep the flavor but skip the fuss—because delicious doesn’t have to mean difficult. Trust me, I’ve tested every shortcut with a full table and happy eaters

Schweineschnitzel (Pork Schnitzel) >

My German schnitzel recipe is as crispy, golden, and delicious as the ones you’ll find in Germany!

With a simple breading and a quick pan-fry, you’ll have tender, flavorful cutlets that are perfect with a squeeze of lemon or a side of potato salad.
