Pork Tenderloin with Cran-Apple Sauerkraut image

I love all the ingredients in this recipe because together they're perfect for Oktoberfest, a fun festival during my favorite time of the year. Serve the pork and sauerkraut with a hearty dark bread, such as rye or pumpernickel, along with an ice-cold beer. Delicious!-Barbara Lento, Houston, Pennslvania

This dish was a bit too sour for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sauerkraut or maybe a different type of sauerkraut.
