Pork With Guinness Recipes

GUINNESS GLAZED PORK CHOPS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Bring stout, sugar, coriander seeds, peppercorns, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a 2quart nonreactive saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then continue boiling (keep an eye on it and reduce heat to keep it from boiling over) until glaze is syrupy and reduced to about 1/2 cup, 20 to 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl and discard solids. Preheat broiler. Pat chops dry and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Divide glaze between 2 small bowls and set 1 aside for use later. Brush both sides of chops with glaze (from remaining bowl) and arrange on rack of a broiler pan. Broil 5 inches from heat, 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium rare. Note: I use a meat thermometer to check for doneness-- Lamb about 140°F and Pork about 145-150°F. Transfer chops to a platter and drizzle with reserved glaze.

GUINNESS & HONEY GLAZED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• To make the glaze, put the Guinness, honey and sugar into a pan. Reduce by almost half to form a sweet syrupy glaze, then allow to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Season the pork with pepper and salt, if you want, place on a baking tray and roast for 20 mins. Then turn the heat down to 160C/fan 140C/gas3. Remove the pork from the oven and brush all over with most of the glaze (reserving a few tbsp) cook for a further 40-50 mins, brushing and basting the pork as it cooks until it's beautifully caramelised and glazed.
• Remove the pork from the roasting tray and leave to rest. Pour the remaining glaze into the roasting tray, then add the wine, Champagne or water. Place the pan on the heat and bring everything to the boil, simmer for a few mins until you have thick gravy. Carve pork into thin slices and place on top of the colcannon (see separate recipe). Glaze with the Guinness syrup, drizzle a little on the plates and finish with a sprig of parsley.

CHEF JOHN'S IRISH PORK STEW

Steps:

• Season pork cubes with salt and black pepper.
• Heat vegetable oil in a pot over high heat. Working in batches, cook and stir pork in hot oil until browned on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a bowl and reduce heat to medium.
• Melt butter in the pot. Cook and stir onion with a pinch of salt in hot butter until onion is softened and translucent, 7 to 10 minutes. Add garlic; saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Stir flour into onion mixture; cook and stir until flour is completely incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add bay leaf and caraway seed; cook for 2 minutes more. Pour beer into onion mixture. Cook and stir until thickened, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Stir pork, chicken broth, carrots, and celery into beer mixture; bring to simmer. Stir 1/4 cup parsley and balsamic vinegar into stew, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until pork is fork-tender, about 2 hours.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook uncovered until almost tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
• Stir Brussels sprouts into stew and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide mashed potatoes between 6 bowls. Ladle stew over potatoes and top each with a pinch of parsley.

PORK ROAST IN SPICY GUINNESS SAUCE

Steps:

• Extra carrots and quartered potatoes may be placed around the roast for the last 45 minutes to 1 hour of cooking (to be served as side dishes with the roast).
• Marinade: Place meat in a deep dish just large enough to hold it.
• Combine 1 bottle of Guinness (1 1/2 cups), onion, peel, and seasonings and pour over meat.
• Add a little more Guinness, if needed, to just cover meat.
• Marinate in refrigerator 1-2 days, turning occasionally.
• Roast: Strain marinade, reserving solids and liquid.
• Place solids, carrot, and celery in bottom of a roasting pan.
• Place meat on top.
• Add a little liquid.
• Roast in a 180°C (350°F) oven for 1 hour.
• Pour one quarter of remaining marinade liquid over meat.
• Continue roasting for 1 to 1 1/2 hours more, basting occasionally with drippings and more marinade, until meat thermometer registers 170°F.
• (Optional:If adding carrots and potatoes, place them around the roast for the last 45 minutes to 1 hour of cooking time, and baste them along with the meat).
• Gravy: Mix flour and 1/3 cup marinade or Guinness to a smooth paste.
• Remove added carrots and potatoes to serving dishes and keep warm.
• Place roast on a platter and keep warm.
• Skim fat from cooking liquid.
• Strain, pressing solids, and add flour mixture, 1/2 cup beer, and enough water, if needed, to measure 2 cups total liquid.
• Cook in roasting pan or a saucepan, stirring constantly, until thickened.
• Serve sauce over meat slices.

GUINNESS & HONEY GLAZED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• THE GLAZE: Put the Guinness, honey and sugar into a pan, and reduce by almost half to form a sweet, syrupy glaze, then allow to cool.
• Heat the oven to 200ºC/fan 180ºC/gas 6.
• Season the pork with pepper and salt, if you want, place on a baking tray, and roast for 20 minutes. Then turn the heat down to 160ºC/fan 140ºC/gas 3. Remove the pork from the oven and brush all over with most of the glaze (reserving a few tablespoons), cook for a further 40-50 minutes, brushing and basting the pork as it cooks until it's beautifully caramelised and glazed.
• Remove the pork from the roasting tray and leave to rest.
• Pour the remaining glaze into the roasting tray, then add the wine, Champagne or water. Place the pan on the heat and bring everything to the boil. Simmer for a few minutes until you have a thick gravy.
• Carve the pork into thin slices and place on top of the colconnan (see Colconnan recipe #123663). Glaze with the Guinness syrup, drizzle a little on the plates and finish with a sprig of parsley.
• My Notes: I really don't think you could get any clearer instructions than Kevin Dundon's. Yet the recipe is far from prescriptive. And I just love his catering for varied tastes in his "Season the pork with pepper and salt, if you want" instruction! And the option of using "wine, Champagne or water". I'll be looking closely at any more of his recipes I come across.

PORK WITH GUINNESS

Steps:

• DIRECTIONS: Serves 6-8 Pork shoulder is a classic for braising. The meat turns nearly spoonable but still slices nicely, and leftovers are great for sandwiches. In this recipe I've combined the pork with dried cherries and sweet potatoes, balancing their sweetness with the slightly bitter taste of Guinness stout and molasses. 1. Bring the stout, cherries, and vinegar to a simmer in a saucepan. Transfer to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let sit for at least 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight. 2. Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 300°F. 3. Warm the oil in a large cast-iron pot or Dutch oven over high heat. Season the pork shoulder with salt and ground black pepper and sear on all sides until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the pork shoulder to a platter. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat in the pot. 4. Add the onion and the crushed black pepper to the pot and sauté for 7 minutes. Add the garlic and continue cooking until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 to 3 minutes longer. Add the pork shoulder, the marinated cherries and liquid, allspice, bay leaves, molasses, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 cups water. Bring the mixture to a simmer. 5. Cover the pot, transfer it to the oven, and braise for 1 hour, turning the pork once during cooking. Add the sweet potatoes and continue to braise for 2 more hours, turning two more times. If the sauce is too thin or is not flavored intensely enough, ladle most of it off into another pot and simmer it until it thickens and intensifies. Then add it back to the first pot. 6. Slice the pork and serve with the sauce on top.
