Yes, with a tweak: confirm small amount of beer is used and cooked down thoroughly to reduce carb content. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Bahamian food, so watch the portion.
What it is

Key ingredients
Pork shoulder or loin, Kalik beer (lager), onions, bell peppers, garlic, thyme, bay leaf, chicken or beef broth, olive oil, salt, black pepper. Served with stewed callaloo or steamed okra.
