Like pork and sauerkraut. Never considered adding all that butter, however. Is that normal?

Normal in my house for sure haha. I mostly add it since I’m using leaner cuts. If I used a pork butt instead of the loin I’d skip the butter…. maybe.

I’ve done that in the past. I use sweet apples (Macintosh, honey crisp, Fuji, etc) now instead. Give it a shot sometime.

When I use a butt, no matter how much I trim it, it's still an incredible amount of fat coming out.

In my household it was mashed potatoes as the required side.

This year I'm going to try cooking it with onions and adding some paprika, taking some inspiration from this.
