CROCK POT PORK ROAST AND SAUERKRAUT



Crock Pot Pork Roast and Sauerkraut image

Throw it in the crock pot on New Year's Eve before you go out, and dinner the next day will be ready; all you have to do is fix the mashed potatoes. Slow, low cooking makes a roast that is very tender. Delicious!! I used to manage a doctor's office, and our Blue Cross rep told me that her family made this every year for New Year's.

CROCK POT PULLED PORK WITH SAUERKRAUT



Crock Pot Pulled Pork With Sauerkraut image

Surprisingly tasty and the result of a mistake that left me needing to come up with a dinner with super easy prep. Freezer to table. I grabbed my crockpot, took a pork tenderloin out of the freezer stuck it in the pot & free poured apple cider I had on hand over it. Put it on & went to work. Later in the day the meat was cooking well, but for our tastes, I knew I had to kick up the flavor. I only had a few minutes to spare. That's when I came up with the other 2 ingredients. Tossed them in & turned down the heat & went back to work. How simple is that! I don't think I spent 5 minutes altogether!
