Ingredients

For the Pork:

For the Glaze:

  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 small sweet onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 12-ounce bottle stout beer (preferably Guinness)
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon minced peeled ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

For the Slaw:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced peeled ginger
  • 1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
  • 2 medium bell peppers (red, orange and/or yellow), thinly sliced
  • 2 carrots, cut into matchsticks or shredded
  • 1 large sweet onion, quartered and thinly sliced

Directions

Prepare the pork: Combine the ale, five-spice powder, cayenne and salt and black pepper to taste in a large resealable plastic bag. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade for the slaw. Add the pork to the bag and mix well. Refrigerate 2 to 6 hours.

Make the glaze: Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until golden, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon each stout and brown sugar and cook 4 minutes. Add all but 2 tablespoons of the remaining stout, the honey, the remaining 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons brown sugar and the ginger. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring, then lower the heat to medium and simmer until reduced by half, 15 to 20 minutes. Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons stout and the cornstarch in a bowl; slowly stir into the glaze and boil 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Remove the pork from the marinade and transfer to a baking dish. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees F, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the slaw: Whisk the soy sauce, honey, garlic and ginger in a large bowl. Whisk in the reserved 1/4 cup marinade. Add the cabbage, bell peppers, carrots and onion and toss. Refrigerate until ready to serve, at least 30 minutes.

Slice the pork and serve with the slaw. Drizzle both the pork and slaw with the glaze.

    This was really tasty! It had a nice amount of tang to it. The slaw would have been a little better if it was able to sit just a little longer to soften a little. It was better then next day. The pork did not discolor on me and it was a hit overall. It had a great Asian flair to it and certainly adds some diversity to the dinner table! I did use Nevada Pale Ale because I was unable to find Bass and I cut the honey down to 3/4 cup per other reviews, but kept everything else the same.

    I wish I had listened to the negative reviewers. We cook all the time and love recipes on this website. But this was such a below average meal. I couldn't be more disappointed. We made it tonight as a test run for serving to guests at a St. Patty's Day dinner and are so happy that we did not serve this at the actual party!

    I threw away a lot of money tonight and i'm not happy about it. How could this guy win. #1 The beer marinade made the pork let out juices and boil a little in the oven. Giving it a grey look. #2 The glaze was like eating a bowl of melted sugar and honey. Disgusting. I threw the whole thing out. yuck.
