Looks a bit like kwasnica to me, except, of course, for the raisins and
maybe prunes. This dish is said to be popular among the Poles living in
the Malopolska (Little Poland) region, particularly in the Tatra
mountains. Is that where your grandmother came from by any chance?
There is a recipe in Polish at
<http://www.wrotamalopolski.pl/root_Turystyka/Gastronomia/Regionalne+przysmaki/kwasnica.htm>
and, as far as I can tell, the ingredients include smoked pork ribs,
sauerkraut, potatoes, bacon, garlic, caraway, salt and pepper. Monika,
what do you say?
