Ingredients
- 6 pieces of bone-in pork neck
- 6 pieces of pork leg
- 500 ml beer (choose a quality blonde beer)
- 1 packet of Delikat barbecue spices
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 medium head of garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
- 1 bunch of fresh parsley
- 3-4 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
Preparation
1. Preparing the meat: Start by washing the pieces of meat well and drying them with a paper towel. This step is essential for achieving a crispy and golden roast.
2. Marinade: Peel the garlic and finely grate it. In a large bowl, add the salt, barbecue spices, pepper, and thyme. Mix the dry ingredients well, then add the olive oil, barbecue sauce, and beer. Stir until well combined.
3. Marinating the meat: Take each piece of meat and coat it evenly with the marinade. Place the meat in a roasting pan and pour the remaining marinade over it. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (ideally, let the meat marinate overnight in the refrigerator).
4. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the pan in the oven and let it bake for one hour. After this interval, remove the foil, turn the meat over, and let it continue baking for another hour.
5. Final browning: After one hour, turn the meat again and let it brown slightly for about 15-20 minutes. This step will help create a delicious crust on the meat.
6. Adding garlic: In the last 5 minutes, add the sliced garlic and chopped parsley over the meat to add fresh and delicious flavors.
7. Serving: When the roast is ready, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve this pork roast with beer alongside rustic potatoes and pickles for an unforgettable festive meal.
Useful Tips
- Choosing the meat: Select pork with a moderate fat content. The fat helps maintain the juiciness of the roast during baking.
- Type of beer: The beer can influence the final taste of the dish. A sweeter beer will add a caramel note, while a bitter beer will provide an interesting contrast.
- Vegetarian option: This recipe can be adapted for vegetarians using tofu or large mushrooms, which can be marinated in the same marinade.
Nutritional Benefits
Pork is an excellent source of protein, vitamins (such as B12), and minerals (such as zinc and iron). By adding garlic, you not only enhance the flavors but also benefit from its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
