Directions
1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chunks and brown on all sides. Transfer the pork to a slow cooker.
2. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent. Add them to the slow cooker.
3. Add the cranberries, chicken broth, apple cider, brown sugar, thyme, salt, and pepper to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
4. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the pork is tender and the flavors have melded together.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving.
Variations & Tips
For a touch of heat, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a bit of water and stir it into the casserole during the last hour of cooking. You can also substitute the pork with chicken thighs for a lighter version. For a more festive twist, add a splash of orange juice or some orange zest to enhance the cranberry flavor.
