Crock Pot Pork and Sauerkraut is a quick and easy crock pot meal that my whole family loves!!! I love that I can start my crock pot in the morning and come home to cooked dinner that only needs a batch of mashed potatoes. We have been making this family recipe for many years. It’s been a winner in several contests and everyone always asks for the recipe. Enjoy!

Sarah says
Do you shred the pork loin? Or will it fall apart all on its own?! First time making this, it’s in the pot now and smells yummy
The pork will fall apart on its own. The meat is so moist and tender after cooking. Let us know what you think Sarah and Happy New Year!
I don’t shred, it usually falls apart. I hope it was great!! Happy New Years
Deb says
R u supposed to rinse & drain sauerkraut?
I never rinse my sauerkraut or drain it. Thanks
Deb says
Did not rinsing add a lot of extra liquid?
I don’t think so, if you think it will be too much just drain it. We serve ours over mashed potatoes, so the liquid is fine for us.
lauren says
Is the beer necessary? And what kind do you recommend?
Apple cider, cola, root beer would all work. I use whatever a friend has in their fridge to borrow, since we don’t drink.
Denise says
This is my first time using sauerkraut in the crockpot. Can not wait to have this for dinner…and no stirring over the stove all day!
I hope it was great! Happy New Year!
