7 pounds pork shoulder (bone in)
2 yellow onions (sliced)
8 garlic cloves (minced)
4 carrots (peeled and cut in medium pieces)
1 bottle of beer (medium bodied)
2 cups beef broth
onion powder
garlic powder
salt & pepper
olive oil

1
Liberally season the pork with garlic powder, onion powder, salt & pepper. Get a large heavy pot and coat with olive oil. Sear the pork on stove top on all sides. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Take the pork out and add the onions and garlic. Saute for 5 minutes. Deglaze with the beer. Scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
3
Add the beef stock and pork back to the pan. Put in the oven to braise. After 3 hours add the carrot pieces to the pan. Make sure you keep checking on this periodically. If the liquid evaporates too quickly then add more beef stock.
4
After 6 hrs (from start to finish) the meat should be tender enough to pull out. You should be able to stick a fork in the meat easily. Take the pork out of the pot and skim the excess grease from the top.
5
Adjust the sauce with salt and pepper. Let the meat rest for 15 minutes before serving.
