Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Step 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.
Step 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.
Step 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.
Step 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).
