How to Make Paddy's Irish Pork Stew

  1. Season 1.5 lbs boneless pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes, with 2 tbsp all-purpose flour, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  2. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the pork cubes in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Set aside.
  4. Add 1 large onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, to the pot. Cook and stir for 5 minutes until softened.
  5. Pour off any excess grease from the pot.
  6. Stir in 2 large carrots, peeled and chopped; 2 celery stalks, chopped; 1 lb potatoes, peeled and cubed; 4 cups beef broth; 1 cup Guinness (or other dark beer); 1 tsp dried thyme; 1/2 tsp dried rosemary; and 1 bay leaf.
  7. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
  8. Cover the Dutch oven and simmer for 1 ¼ - 1 ½ hours, or until the pork is incredibly tender and easily falls apart.
  9. Remove the bay leaf before serving. Stir occasionally during cooking.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) before serving with colcannon or mashed potatoes.
