Slow Cooker Pork, Sauerkraut, and Beer

4.6
(17)

A family slow cooker favorite with pork, sauerkraut, and beer that's easy to put together. The beer enhances the flavor of the sauerkraut and pork. There is no need to brown the pork roast before placing it in the slow cooker. I serve this with scalloped or mashed potatoes.
