• 3. Stir all the spices into the beer.
• 4. Put pork back into the pot with the veggies. Pour the beer and seasonings over the pork.
• 5. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for about 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until pork is fork tender.
• 6. Take pork out of the pot, cover with aluminum foil and rest for about 10 minutes.
• 7. Meanwhile, use an immersion blender to puree the veggies into the liquid in the pot.
• 8. I've never added any flour to thicken since the veggies make a nice thick broth with the juices & beer. Keep warm over low heat, until ready to serve.
• 9. If you do not have an immersion blender, pour the liquid and veggies into a bowl. Put about 1/2 at a time into a food processor or blender. It will be hot so be careful and do not try to do too much at a time. Keep a towel folded over the processer/blender lid to be sure it doesn't allow hot liquid to spurt out the top.
