Roasted Pork Neck in Beer with Onion

What it is
Slow-roasted pork neck, tenderized and infused with rich flavor from being braised in dark beer with plenty of onions, garlic, and caraway seeds. The long cooking process reduces most of the beer's carbohydrates, leaving a deep, savory sauce. This traditional preparation yields incredibly succulent pork.
Key ingredients
Pork neck, dark beer (e.g., Šariš dark), large onions, garlic, caraway seeds, salt, black pepper, bay leaves, lard or olive oil.
How to make it keto

Watch out for
Beer contains carbohydrates, although most are reduced during long cooking. Ensure the sauce is not thickened with flour or other starches and no added sugar is present. Onions contribute some carbs.
