Liberally season the pork loin with salt and pepper on all sides.
Heat oil in a large skillet or a dutch oven. Sear pork loin on all sides, 2-3 minutes per side.

Add seared pork into a slow cooker. Pour in apple juice. Place onions, apples, and garlic around the pork loin. Top with sauerkraut.

Place lid on the slow cooker and cook for 4-5 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low.

Remove pork and slice or shred and serve with cooking liquids.

Notes

Sauerkraut: 16 ounces of sauerkraut is enough for a 2-4 pound pork loin. Any larger pork loin, you will want to double the amount of sauerkraut. And be sure to drain the liquid off the sauerkraut.
Apples: Use any apple that holds up well to baking, such as a Braeburn, Granny Smith, or Golden Delicious.
Apple Juice: If you don't have apple juice, use chicken stock in its place, but add in 2 tablespoons of brown sugar to help balance the flavors in this pork and sauerkraut. But I am telling you, the apple juice makes this dish incredible.
