Like Ness, no picture on this. But I found it definitely worth sharing.
1. Coat a boneless pork shoulder in salt, pepper, and Chinese Five Spice.
2. Vacuum seal the pork and immerse it in a 145 degree sous vide bath. Leave it there 24 hours.
3. Before you remove the pork, saute a sliced onion until about half carmelized. Add two sliced Granny Smith apples, a half jar of sauerkraut (about two cups) with juices, and 10 baby red potatoes halved or quartered. Add enough chicken stock and beer to almost cover the mixture. Taste and add brown sugar or commercial grade maple syrup, salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer until fluid reduced by half.
4. Remove the pork from its bag and pour the juices into the potato mix. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
5. Slice the pork in half inch steaks and serve covered with the potato mix.
BTW, the pork cook yields tender and juicy meat that barely requires a knife at the table.
