The Beer Pork Roast is a second course that can be prepared very well for any occasion. The cost is cheaper than beef or veal and the yield is good. For this recipe, we need a few ingredients, flavors that should never be missing, and instead of wine and broth, I used a bottle of beer which, in my opinion, makes the meat more tender.

Steps
Place the pork loin in the pan with preheated oil and brown it well on each side. Once it has colored, add a dice of shallot, carrot, celery, and rosemary sprigs tied with kitchen twine to prevent the needles from scattering. Mix the flavors, salt, and pour in the beer. Wait a few minutes for the alcohol to evaporate, cover with a lid and cook over low heat for 90 minutes, occasionally turning the loin.
Once the time has passed, turn off the heat and remove the roast from the pan. Remove the bay leaf and rosemary sprigs and blend the reduced sauce with an immersion blender. Cut the roast into thin slices using a slicer or an electric knife. Spread a base of sauce on the serving plate, place the slices, and cover them with more sauce. Decorate with a few fresh rosemary needles.
