Slow Cooker Pork Roast with Sauerkraut
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon bacon drippings
  • 1 cup minced onion
  • 1 large red apple, diced
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 2 pounds sauerkraut, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 pounds boneless pork loin roast
  • 1 pound kielbasa sausage, cut into 3-inch pieces
Instructions
1
Heat the rendered fat from cooked bacon in a large, heavy pot over an average heat setting. Sear and constantly stir the sliced onion until it becomes soft and loses its initial firmness, approximately 5 minutes. Introduce the diced apple and caraway seeds into the pot and continue to cook until the apple has reached a tender yet still crisp state, roughly 3 minutes more. Combine the sauerkraut with the other ingredients in the pot, stirring until they are fully incorporated.
2
In a separate container, mix together white wine, chicken stock, and brown sugar in a moderate ratio; pour this mixture over the sauerkraut.
3
Place a pork roast into a slow cooker. Pour the sauerkraut mixture over the top of the pork.
4
Cook on a low setting until the meat can be easily torn apart with a fork, 6 to 8 hours. Add sausage and continue to cook until the sausage is heated through, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
