- 1 bottle (341 mL) beer or ale
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) prepared mustard

- 1/4 tsp (1 mL) cayenne pepper
- 18 (approx) whole cloves
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) packed dark brown sugar
Preparation
Slice off and discard skin from pork, leaving fat; score crisscrosses into fat almost through to meat. Place pork in small roasting pan with beer and bay leaves.
Stir together garlic, mustard, thyme, black pepper and cayenne; spread over pork. Stud top with cloves. Cover with foil; bake in 325°F/160°C oven for 15 minutes per pound/30 minutes per kilogram. Remove from oven; remove foil.
In small bowl, stir sugar with 1 tbsp/15 mL of the pan juices, or more if necessary, until in paste; spread evenly over pork. Bake in 375°F/190°C oven, basting with pan juices once after 20 minutes, until nicely glazed, 30 to 35 minutes; transfer pork to serving platter.
Makes 8 to 10 servings.
