Ingredients

• 3 lbs Boneless pork shoulder roast
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 large Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 32 oz Sauerkraut, drained
• 1 medium Apple, peeled and chopped
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar
• 1 tsp Caraway seeds
• 1 cup Chicken broth

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

Step 2

Pat the pork shoulder roast dry with paper towels and season all sides generously with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

In a large oven-safe Dutch oven or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the pork roast on all sides until deeply golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the pork from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped onion to the same skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Stir in the sauerkraut, chopped apple, brown sugar, and caraway seeds. Mix well to combine.

Step 8

Pour in the chicken broth and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet to deglaze.

Step 9

Return the seared pork roast to the skillet, nestling it into the sauerkraut mixture.

Step 10

Cover the skillet tightly with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.

Step 11

Bake for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.

Step 12

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing or shredding.

Step 13

Serve the pork roast over the sauerkraut mixture, pairing it with mashed potatoes or crusty bread for a complete meal. Enjoy!
