Add the cubed pork to the pot. Brown the pork on all sides, stirring occasionally. This should take about 10-15 minutes.

Add the drained and chopped sauerkraut, bay leaves, and black peppercorns to the pot. Stir everything together well. If the mixture seems dry, add about 1 cup of water or reserved sauerkraut brine.

Bring the stew to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for at least 1 hour, or until the pork is tender. Stir occasionally, adding more liquid if it becomes too dry.

Once the pork is tender and the flavors have melded, remove the bay leaves. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary (though salt is usually not needed).
