Tips:
- Choosing the right pork cut is essential for this recipe. Pork shoulder or pork butt are the best choices as they are well-marbled and will become tender and flavorful after slow cooking.
- Sear the pork shoulder or pork butt in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat before slow cooking. This will help to develop its flavor and color.
- Use a variety of apples for this recipe, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady. This will give the dish a complex flavor and texture.
- Add some fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or sage, to the pot along with the apples. This will help to infuse the pork and apples with flavor.
- Cook the pork shoulder or pork butt on low heat for at least 8 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender. This will ensure that the meat is cooked through and has absorbed all of the flavors from the apples and herbs.
- Serve the slow-cooked pork with apples over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. You can also add a side of roasted vegetables or a green salad.

Slow-cooked pork with apples is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The pork is tender and flavorful, the apples are sweet and tart, and the herbs add a touch of complexity. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
