Pork And Sauerkraut - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lean pork roast, about 4 to 5 lb
1 cup water
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (15 ounce) can sauerkraut
1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 cup brown sugar

Preparation

Preparation -.
Place the pork roast in a Dutch oven or other large, deep, heavy pan. Add about 1 cup water and black pepper. Cover and cook over low heat for about 2 hours. Mix the sauerkraut, applesauce and brown sugar together. Pour the mixture in to the pan, over the pork roast. Cover and simmer for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours longer or until the pork is tender and falling apart.
This can also be roasted in the oven, in a covered roasting pan. Set the oven temperature to 350\u00b0 and roast for about 2 hours. Add the sauerkraut and other ingredients, lower the oven temperature to about 300\u00b0, and roast for an additional 1 to 1-1/2 hours. This is also a good crockpot meal. Just add all the ingredients at once and cook on the low setting for about 7 hours.
