Almost Nanny's Pork and Sauerkraut

Ingredients:

















Boneless Pork Tenderloin, 5 Ibs

Sauerkraut, 4 Ibs (2 bags)
Meat Tenderizer
Pepper

Cook:
Get out your crockpot / slowcooker.
Realize the pork tenderloin won't fit in the crockpot.
Cut pork tenderloin in two.


Put 1 bag of kraut bag in the fridge.
Put half of the remaining bag of kraut on the bottom of the slowcooker (1 Ib)


Then layer on half of the pork tenderloin (2.5 Ibs)


Then the rest of the kraut (1 Ib)


Turn on slowcooker, cover, set to high for 1 hour and 15 minutes.


(This is the part where I cut up the remaining half the pork tenderloin into slices for easy freezing.)


When the timer goes off set the crockpot to low for 6 hours.

The pork will start to look white at some point. The first time you notice this (for me this is when 5 hours  was remaining on the timer), put a layer of meat tenderizer on both sides and stab with a fork to get it on in there. Move the kraut back on top and add a light sprinkle of pepper. Yummy.


I check it occasionally, and half way through the 6 hours I flip the roast in the pot.
Timer goes off.


Pork roast will be flakey and pull apart like buttah. Yummy.
