Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Mix sauerkraut, apples, onion, and caraway seeds in a large roasting pan. Stir 1/4 cup apple cider and brown sugar together in a separate bowl; pour over sauerkraut mixture.
- Stir Thai seasoning, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a small bowl; rub onto the top and bottom of the roast.
- Make an indentation in the center of the sauerkraut mixture and place the seasoned roast in the indentation. Pour the remaining apple cider around the roast.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour; baste roast with juices. Continue baking roast, basting every 30 minutes, until cooked through, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

SAUERKRAUT AND APPLES
In the Chesapeake, seafood often finds its way onto the Thanksgiving menu. But in Baltimore, which has a strong eastern European and German immigrant history, the holiday table demands something else. "The absence of sauerkraut when turkey is present, Thanksgiving included, is unthinkable, comparable to potatoes without gravy or crisp French fries without ketchup," wrote John Shields, the chef and owner of Gertrude's restaurant in Baltimore, in his cookbook "Chesapeake Bay Cooking." (Sauerkraut is a mainstay well beyond Thanksgiving; Gertrude's hosts an annual Krautfest in January.) Traditionally, homemakers fermented the cabbage in earthenware crocks in their cellars, but these days the fresh stuff is available to buy. On Thanksgiving, it's often simply served as a side, or incorporated into dishes like this, in which the sauerkraut is braised in beer with bacon and apples.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook, stirring often, until fat has started to render, about 5 minutes.
- Toss onion and apples in the fat and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in sauerkraut.
- Add beer and season with pepper and caraway seeds. Bring mixture to a boil, then cover the pot. Reduce heat so mixture is just simmering and cook for 45 minutes. Or transfer the covered pot to a 350-degree oven and bake for 1 hour. Stir and serve hot.

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage. This will help the sauerkraut ferment evenly.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with a slicing blade to slice the cabbage.
- Be sure to massage the cabbage with the salt until it releases its juices. This will help to create a brine that will help the sauerkraut ferment.
- Add the apples, caraway seeds, and juniper berries to the cabbage mixture. These ingredients will add flavor and complexity to the sauerkraut.
- Pack the sauerkraut mixture tightly into a clean glass jar. Leave about 1 inch of headspace at the top of the jar.
- Cover the jar with a lid and let it ferment at room temperature for 1-2 weeks. The sauerkraut will be ready when it has a sour, tangy flavor.
- Once the sauerkraut is fermented, store it in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
