Ingredients
- 3 (32 ounce) packages sauerkraut, drained
- 2 Granny Smith apples, sliced
- 1/2 large onion, coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon caraway seeds
- 1 cup apple cider, divided
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Thai seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 (5 pound) boneless pork loin roast
Instructions
1
First, preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).
2
Meanwhile, combine sauerkraut, sliced apples, chopped onion, and caraway seeds in a spacious roasting pan. In another bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of apple cider and brown sugar until well combined; pour this mixture over the sauerkraut mixture.
3
Next, create a flavorful marinade by mixing together Thai seasoning, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper in a small bowl. Rub this seasoning blend all over the surface of the roast, making sure to cover both the top and bottom.
4
Create a small depression in the center of the sauerkraut mixture, then carefully place the seasoned roast into this indentation. Pour any remaining 1/4 cup of apple cider around the edges of the roast.
5
Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the roast is cooked through. During this time, baste the roast with its own juices every 30 minutes, starting after the first hour. If the roast becomes too dry, you can add a bit more apple cider to compensate.
6
Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature of the roast. It should read at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius) before serving.
