Cabbage, pork and potato stew

We had cabbage and potatoes in our veg box, and some pork shoulder chops from the supermarket, so I thought, 'hey, I'll make cabbage, potato and pork stew.' Creative, I know. I trolled the web and found this recipe which sounded pretty good, with the vinegar (I love pickled things) and the mustard. Made it last night and it was a major disappointment: too vinegary (even for me), too bland, not substantial enough. We added some creamy yogurt to see if that helped, and it did a little. It wasn't disgusting - we ate it. But really nothing to recommend it. No idea what we'll do with the dutch oven full of it sitting in the fridge. I would not try that recipe again. Not even sure how I'd change it to improve it.
