Indulge in the hearty goodness of Fall Harvest Pork Stew with Beer, a symphony of autumnal flavors simmered to perfection. This delectable stew showcases tender chunks of pork enveloped in a rich, savory broth infused with the malty sweetness of beer. A medley of hearty vegetables, including carrots, celery, and potatoes, adds a delightful crunch and rustic charm to the dish.
Savor the aromatic blend of spices, including thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves, which dance in harmony to elevate the stew's flavor profile. A touch of honey lends a hint of sweetness, while a splash of Dijon mustard adds a welcome tang.
This culinary masterpiece is not only a feast for the senses but also incredibly versatile. Experiment with different types of beer to create unique flavor variations. For a smoky twist, opt for a dark stout or porter. If you prefer a lighter, more refreshing flavor, a crisp lager or wheat beer will do the trick.

Steps:
- In a large Dutch oven or heavy bottomed pot, place olive oil and bacon and cook over medium high for 8-10 minutes until the bacon is crispy.
- Add the onions and lower heat to medium low and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add garlic and cook for one minute.
- With a slotted spoon or spider, remove bacon and onion mixture to a large bowl.
- Lay pork pieces out and salt and pepper both sides.
- Heat the pot with the bacon fat to medium high and once hot, sear meat in three or four batches. Do not over crowd pan and sear each side for three to four minutes. Remove to bowl with bacon and onions as you sear each batch. The searing process should take 30-40 minutes total. Don't rush this step; just make sure each piece is nice and golden brown.
- Once the last batch is done, pour the bowl back in the pot and add the white wine. Stir to get all brown bits from bottom of pot.
- Add carrots, apples, apple sauce, one can of stock and bay leaves. Bring to boil, lower to a simmer, and place cover partially on. Simmer for two hours, stirring occasionally.
- After two hours, add second can of stock and the potatoes and bring to a rolling simmer. Cook five minutes then add squash and cook for an additional 15 minutes. (Be careful at this point as the mixture will be thick and if not watched, may stick and burn). The pork is very tender so as you stir, try not to break the meat up too much.
- Once the potatoes and squash are cooked, serve stew in bowls.

PORK AND BEER STEW (GERMAN)
*Schweinefleisch und Bier-Eintopf* in German, this recipe is from *Modern German Food* by Roz Denny. Roz said "In several parts of Germany, breadcrumbs are used to thicken soups & stews, a brilliant idea that adds a delicious rich & slightly nutty flavour, esp when beer is used instead of stock. This recipe uses shoulder of pork, but works equally well w/beef or veal & is a wonderful warming casserole." *Enjoy* ! (15 min was allowed for ingredient prep)

- Feel free to add other vegetables to the stew, such as carrots, celery, or potatoes.

- Serve the stew with a side of bread or dumplings.
