2 lbs pork shoulder (roast) or 2 lbs pork legs (roast)
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 sliced onions
8 slices uncooked diced bacon
2 cored and chunked apples
2 cups sweetened applesauce (the chunkier the better)
3 cups chopped carrots
6 tablespoons grainy mustard
3 bay leaves
salt
pepper
chicken broth, to almost cover

1
Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Cut roast into two pieces. Brown well on all sides - this will take a bit of extra time, but it should get very well browned to develop the flavour.
2
Remove roast and drain excess grease.
3
Add bacon and onions to pan. Cook, stirring often, until onions are soft and brown.
4
Add roast back in, along with remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cover.
5
Simmer approximately two hours, or until pork is very tender.
6
The liquid thickens only slightly, so I like to serve it over spaetzle that has been fried in butter, which absorbs the sauce.
