In my region, serving pork & sauerkraut on New Year's Day is a tradition, and for most of us, a must! This is how I have been making pork & sauerkraut for 20 years, and I always get told "mine" is the best. Everyone always asks me what my secret it. It is so easy; not sure why it turns out so great this way, but it does! I know...

Categories     Pork

Number Of Ingredients 4

4-5 lb pork roast (can be any kind)
2 large cans silverfloss sauerkraut, undrained
1 can(s) beer
6-10 polska kielbasa sausage links

Steps:

  • 1. Ready for this difficult task? Ha. Trim pork of most fat, and season with fresh ground pepper. Place in crockpot.
  • 2. Add sauerkraut and beer. Cook on LOW for about 6 hours. Add kielbasa links and cook for another 2/3 hours. I usually cook my pork & kraut overnight, then add the kielbasa in the morning. The pork will fall apart & become part of the kraut, which gives it wonderful flavor. That's it!!!
  • 3. You can also roast a separate pork in a pan, if you want more to slice rather than just mixed w/ the kraut. Serve w/ mashed potatoes, corn, applesauce, crusty bread, & some horseradish on the side. YUMMY!!!

This recipe makes great leftovers. I love to make a big batch on the weekend and then have it for lunch or dinner throughout the week. It's also great for freezing. I just pop it in the freezer in individual containers and then reheat it when I'm rea

This recipe is very budget-friendly. I was able to make it for a fraction of the cost of what it would have cost to order it from a restaurant. And it tasted just as good, if not better!

I love this recipe because it's so versatile. I've made it with different types of pork and sauerkraut, and it's always turned out great. I also like to add a little spice to the dish with some cayenne pepper or paprika.

This recipe is a lifesaver for busy weeknights. It's quick and easy to make, and the results are always delicious. I love that I can throw everything in the slow cooker and have a hot, home-cooked meal waiting for me when I get home from work.

This is one of the best pork sauerkraut recipes I've ever tried. The pork was cooked to perfection and the sauerkraut had just the right amount of tang. I served it with mashed potatoes and it was a perfect comfort food meal.

I made this recipe with a few modifications to make it healthier. I used lean pork tenderloin and reduced the amount of butter and oil. The dish was still delicious and my family loved it. It's a great way to get a healthy meal on the table.

OMG, this dish is amazing! The pork was so tender and juicy, and the sauerkraut was the perfect accompaniment. I loved the tangy flavor of the sauerkraut and the richness of the pork. This is definitely going to be a regular in my dinner rotation.

This recipe is an absolute winner! The pork was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauerkraut was tangy and flavorful. I served it with mashed potatoes and it was a hit with the whole family. Definitely a keeper!
