Tips:

  • Choosing the right cut of pork is essential for a tender and flavorful roast. Pork shoulder, also known as pork butt, is a well-marbled cut that is perfect for slow-cooking. It will become fall-apart tender in the oven.
  • Searing the pork roast before braising it adds depth of flavor and color. Make sure to brown all sides of the roast in a hot skillet before transferring it to the slow cooker.
  • Use a good quality apple cider for the braising liquid. Look for one that is unfiltered and has a robust flavor. You can also use apple juice, but it will not have as much flavor.
  • Add some aromatics to the braising liquid for extra flavor. Onion, garlic, celery, and carrots are all good choices. You can also add a bay leaf or two.
  • Cook the pork roast on low heat for 8-10 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast.
  • Serve the pork roast with sauerkraut and apples for a traditional German meal. You can also add mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.

Conclusion:

Apple cider pork roast with sauerkraut and apples is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The pork roast is tender and flavorful, and the sauerkraut and apples add a tangy and sweet contrast. This dish is also relatively easy to make, making it a great option for a weeknight meal.
