Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2

Heat bacon grease in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; cook and stir until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.

3

Arrange sauerkraut and apples in a large roasting pan. Top with cooked onions and bacon grease from the skillet.

4

Mix together chicken broth, brown sugar, and mustard powder in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until sugar dissolves and broth is heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir and pour over sauerkraut mixture, mixing to combine.

5

Cut several deep slits into the top of pork loin and place in the center of sauerkraut mixture. Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil.

6

Roast in the preheated oven until heated through, about 1 hour. Reduce oven temperature to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C). Continue roasting until pork is tender and pulls apart easily, 2 to 3 hours. Remove from the oven and cool until easily handled, about 15 minutes.

7

Discard pork bones, shred meat using 2 forks, and return to the pan with sauerkraut mixture. Stir well to combine.
