Cooking Tips

• For extra flavor, marinate the pork roast overnight in the refrigerator.
• Make sure to let the pork roast rest before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute and keep the meat tender.
• If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can add a cornstarch slurry to the beer gravy and cook until desired consistency is reached.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover roast pork can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the sliced pork in a baking dish, cover with foil, and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through.
• Serve the roast pork with mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, and a side of German-style mustard for a complete meal.
