The pork:
My tenderloin was 2.3 pounds. You probably won’t find one that is exactly 2 pounds as the recipe states and that is fine. If your pork is much more than 2.5 pounds, I would add another can of sauerkraut. If it is only 1.5 pounds, you would only need 2 cans. Since they are rarely an exact weight, adjust as needed.
If you can’t find a pork tenderloin or want a cheaper cut of meat, that will work too. You will just have more fat in your end dish or you may have bones to pick out. A tenderloin is a very nice cut of meat without bones or much fat to deal with.
The sauerkraut:
As you can see in the picture, I had a can and a jar of sauerkraut. That is just what I had on hand and it worked just fine. As long as it adds up to about the right number of ounces, it is fine. This is not an exact science. It will also depend on how much you love sauerkraut.
Ingredients:
(Full printable ingredients and instructions are just below.)
Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours.
Shred meat and mix together with sauerkraut and enjoy.
I have read a tip of using a mixer to shred meat but this shreds so easily that I don’t think it is necessary for this. It is a good tip though so I wanted to share it!
Serve.
