• Arrange vegetables around the roast.
• Pour the marinade over roast and vegetables.
• Cover and bake at 350°F for 1 1/2- 2 hours.
• Remove cover and continue baking for another 1/2 hour.

Steps:

• Put the sausage and bacon in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook, turning to brown evenly, until bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon from pan and set it aside.
• Add a 1/4 cup of the beer to the skillet and continue cooking the sausage until cooked through, about 10 minutes more. Remove the sausage from the pan and set aside.
• Add the potatoes and onion to the skillet, along with another 1/4 cup beer. Cook, stirring and adding more beer as needed, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Cut the sausages into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and stir into the potato mixture along with the barbecue sauce. Transfer to a serving dish and crumble the bacon over the top. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

DRUNKEN PIG - PORK

Steps:

• Mix everything but the pork and potatoes in a big ziplock bag. Drop in the pork (leave on any strings), seal the bag, and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. Fire up your grill for medium indirect grilling (see "Don't Be So Direct"). Once the fire is ready, debag the pork, put it over in­direct heat, and close the lid (with the vents partly open). Grill, turning and brushing with marinade a few times, for about l 1/2 hours. Crumple a big piece of foil to make a bag, and dump in the potatoes and the remaining marinade. Grill over direct heat for about 15 minutes. The roast is done when the juices run clear in the middle (about 155°F on an instant-read thermometer). Rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes so the juices seep back in. Cut into 1/2"-thick diagonal slices. Dump the potatoes on the pork.

JANETTE'S DRUNKEN-PIG HOME-FRIES

• Cut the kielbasa into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and stir into the potato mixture along with the barbecue sauce. Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with parsley, and serve.

DRUNKEN PORK ROAST AND GRAVY

• In a Dutch oven casserole dish, heat olive oil and bacon grease on medium high.
• Add pork roast and sear on all sides (about 1 or 2 minutes per side).
• Add the onion and garlic on the last turn.
• Remove from heat; add wine; cover and bake for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Remove roast from pot and place on cutting board.

• Place the Dutch oven containing the baked juices (wine sauce) on top of the stove over medium heat.
• In a small bowl, mix the milk and flour until smooth.
• Add the flour mixture to the juices; season with salt and pepper to taste.

• Slice pork and serve with the gravy.

ROBYN'S DRUNKEN PORK TENDERLOIN RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Remove the pork tenderloin from the package and trim off any silver skin - this is a shiny fat type piece that may (or may not) be on part of the tenderloin. Honestly though if you don't take it off now it is not a big deal, you can cut it off the cooked pork as you are eating it if you need to. Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt and pepper (to lightly cover) over all sides of each piece of pork. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the pork tenderloins. Let the pork sit without moving for about 3 minutes. Before that it will seem like they are "stuck" to the pan, but after 3 minutes or so the pork tenderloin pieces should release. Rotate the pork tenderloins so that you get each of the outside surfaces browned nicely. Remove the browned pork tenderloin from pan and place in a rectangular baking dish. Now add the onions to the same pan you used to brown the pork tenderloin and saute them for about 5 minutes. Then carefully add about 1/4 bottle of the wine to deglaze the pan. It will steam up a lot and you need to take a wooden spoon and scrape the bottom of the pan right away to loosen up all of those nice browned bits - they are full of pork flavor! Once you have the bits scraped up, add the rest of the bottle of wine and bring to a boil. Let simmer for 3 minutes. Pour the onion and wine mixture over the browned pork tenderloin in the baking dish. Place in the oven and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes. Use your meat thermometer to make sure the pork is at 145° in the thickest part. Remove from the oven and place the pork tenderloins on cutting board to rest. Pour the liquid from the baking dish into your skillet on high heat and whisk in one package of brown gravy mix. Cook on medium for about 3 minutes to thicken and reduce. Slice your roasted pork tenderloin, after it has rested for about 10 minutes, into about 1/4" thick slices and serve with the onions and top with the red wine gravy.

KIKI'S BORRACHO (DRUNKEN) BEANS

Steps:

• Soak beans in a large pot of water overnight.
• Drain beans, and refill the pot with chicken stock and enough water to cover the beans with 2 inches of liquid. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Stir the beans occasionally through out the entire cooking process to make sure they do not burn or stick to the bottom of the pot.
• Stir beer, tomatoes, onion, jalapeno peppers, garlic, bay leaves, oregano, and cilantro into the beans. Continue to cook uncovered for 1 hour, or until beans are tender.
• With a potato masher, crush the beans slightly to thicken the bean liquid. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper to taste.
