Serve: Once cooked, remove the pork roast from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before shredding or slicing. Serve the pork with the sauerkraut and potatoes from the slow cooker. (10 minutes)
For a richer flavor, sear the pork loin roast in a skillet with a little olive oil before placing it in the slow cooker.
Adjust the amount of sauerkraut to your preference. Some prefer a tangier flavor, while others prefer a milder taste.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious juices.
If you like, you can also add sliced onions or apples to the slow cooker for additional flavor and sweetness.
