Some friends of ours made this for us and it was great. I haven’t tried cooking it yet but when I see a suitable joint of pork and a few friends are coming round, I must remember it.<\/p>\n
The recipe comes from The Fabulous Baker Brothers<\/cite> . I assume the basic idea originated in America since no other self-respecting nation would use American pale ale. I’m also sure a substitute (better) beer would be perfectly acceptable.<\/p>\n Score the skin of the pork as if making crackling and place it in an oven tray.<\/p>\n Mix all the remaining ingredients together then cover the pork with it, rubbing the marinade into the slits. Leave the pork in the refrigerator to marinate over night.<\/p>\n The following day, heat the oven to 230\u00b0C\/450\u00b0F\/gas 8. Cook the pork in the very hot oven for 20 minutes (or until it develops a good colour). Remove the pork and cover it with foil while you cool the oven to 140\u00b0C\/275\u00b0F\/gas 1. Return the pork to the cool oven for about 8 hours. It should pull away from the bone and be very tender – mind you, so should a horseshoe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nPlanning<\/h2>\n
