I've always loved pork and apples together, and this recipe combines them nicely to create a comforting main dish. It calls for a bit of preparation, but my family and I agree that its wonderful flavor makes it well work the extra effort. -Suzanne Strocsher, Bothell, Washington

Ingredients

1 pound sliced bacon, cut into 2-inch pieces
3 medium onions, chopped
3 pounds boneless pork, cut into 1-inch cubes
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
Canola oil, optional
3 medium tart apples, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup apple cider
1/2 cup water
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup milk
5 tablespoons butter, divided
Additional salt and pepper

Directions

Cook bacon in an ovenproof 12-in. skillet until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. In drippings, saute onions until tender; remove with slotted spoon and set aside. Dust pork lightly with flour. Brown a third at a time in drippings, adding oil if needed. Remove from the heat and drain.
To the pork, add the bacon, onions, apples, sage, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Stir in cider and water. Cover and bake at 325° for 2 hours or until pork is tender.
Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender.
Drain and mash with milk and 3 tablespoons butter. Add salt and pepper to taste. Remove skillet from the oven and spread potatoes over pork mixture.
Melt remaining butter; brush over potatoes. Broil 6 in. from the heat for 5 minutes or until topping is browned. Sprinkle with parsley if desired. Yield: 10 servings.

We LOVE this! I discovered it a few years ago and it has become a Family Fave! I make it several times a year and it is nothing short of fantastic! It's not fast food by any stretch.... start it early and just enjoy the process...and double the mashed potatoes.

AWESOME!! You need to try this!

This is a great way to use up leftover pork roast too! I doubled the amt of mashed potatoes to get it to look like the picture, and added cut green beans to make it a 1-pot meal. Great down-home flavor!
