Directions
-
In a shallow bowl, combine all-purpose flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the cubed pork in the flour mixture, ensuring each piece is lightly coated.
-
Heat oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the floured pork and brown on all sides, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
-
Once the pork is browned, add sliced onions and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to soften.
-
Pour off any excess fat or drippings from the skillet, leaving the pork and onions behind.
-
Stir in chopped parsley, caraway seeds, bay leaf, chicken stock, beer, red wine vinegar, and brown sugar until well combined.
-
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover the skillet and simmer for 1 1/4 hours, or until the pork is very tender.
-
Stir the stew occasionally during cooking to ensure even heating and flavor distribution.
-
Serve hot with buttered noodles, rye bread, and cabbage slaw for a complete meal.
