Steps:

• Cook onion and garlic in oil in a 3 1/2- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally (stir more frequently toward end of cooking), until golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Bake, uncovered, for 2 hours and 15 minutes, or until top begins to brown deeply and most of the liquid has cooked away. Note: It is important to use a flat dish so the liquid evaporates as it cooks.

• Rub bacon well with mixture, shaking off excess. Place bacon in a small ovenproof dish. Add cider and enough water to come halfway up sides of bacon. Cover lightly with foil and bake 3 hours, turning bacon halfway during cooking. Check occasionally and add boiling water as necessary to maintain level of liquid in dish. Remove dish from oven and cool until warm; bacon should be very tender but intact. Place a heavy plate on bacon to weight it as it cools. Place dish in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Drain sauerkraut and place in a ceramic baking dish. Break bacon slab into large irregular pieces or cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes, and scatter over kraut.

Spoon about 1/3 cup over bacon and kraut, cover, and bake for 30 minutes.
• While bacon and kraut bake, prepare potatoes: If potatoes have smooth skins, they need not be peeled. Cut in two lengthwise. Melt reserved fat in a medium skillet, and add potatoes cut-side down. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sauté over medium heat until browned on bottoms, about 5 minutes. Turn and continue to cook for a few minutes, then add remaining braising liquid and remove from heat.
