Preheat oven to 175ยฐC (350ยฐF).

In a large skillet, sautรฉ the diced bacon over medium heat until crisp and golden brown. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on paper towels, reserving about 1 tablespoon of bacon fat in the skillet.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: This renders the fat and makes the bacon crispy. - 3
Season the pork shoulder cubes with paprika and black pepper. Add olive oil to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat and heat over medium-high heat. Sear the pork cubes on all sides until golden brown. Do this in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Searing locks in juices and adds depth of flavor. - 4
In a large bowl, combine the drained sauerkraut, applesauce, brown sugar, and dry mustard. Mix well.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Using unsweetened applesauce provides a natural sweetness without being overpowering. - 5
Spread half of the sauerkraut mixture into the bottom of a large casserole dish. Arrange the seared pork cubes over the sauerkraut. Pour the white wine over the pork.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Using a casserole dish with a lid is recommended for even cooking. - 6
Top the pork with the remaining sauerkraut mixture. Sprinkle the reserved crispy bacon over the top.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Ensures a flavorful layer throughout the casserole. - 7
Cover the casserole dish tightly with a lid or aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the pork is tender and cooked through.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: The long, slow cooking time tenderizes the pork and melds the flavors. - 8
Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot.
