Pork roast with apples and sauerkraut is the traditional New Year's Day meal here in the land of the Pennsylvania Dutch. This is my rendition of that holiday meal. I usually serve it with mashed potatoes and applesauce.
Ingredients
- 3 packages sauerkraut , 32 ounce
- 2 Grannys Smith apples , sliced
- 0.5 large onion , coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon caraway seeds
- 1 cup apple cider , or more to taste, divided
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
-
2
Make the apples and sauerkraut: 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.
-
3
Make the pork: Stir Thai seasoning, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a small bowl. Rub seasoning mixture all over the top and bottom of the roast.
-
4
Make an indentation in the center of the sauerkraut mixture and place seasoned roast into the indentation. Pour remaining 1/4 cup apple cider around roast.
-
5
Bake in the preheated oven, basting with the roast's juices after the first hour and then every 30 minutes, until cooked through, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Add more apple cider if the roast becomes too dry. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Crustless Cottage Cheese Mini Quiches
This crustless cottage cheese quiche recipe is simple to make and vegetables can be interchanged with what you have. If you want a knock-off of the pricey soufflé sold at a local cafe chain, just add puff pastry to the bottom of a pie tin.
Garlic and Dill Lacto-Fermented Pickles
Traditionally, dill pickles were made by the lacto-fermentation process. Requiring nothing more than salt, cucumbers, water, and seasonings. But no vinegar! The fermentation process works because the high salt content kills off bad bacteria leaving the healthy bacteria alone. This style of pickling is not only healthy for you but tastes wonderful as well!
Beef and Barley Soup I
We are remodeling the kitchen and getting very hungry for food again so I got out the slow cooker and made this soup. It's perfect when you do not have a lot of time. Since you can get soup bones that contain little fat, this soup is nearly fat-free. When the soup is cooled there is no visible fat at the surface.
