Ingredients You’ll Need
Before you run off to the grocery store, let’s gather our ingredient army!
- 2 pounds pork shoulder or pork steak
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 cup of beer (or more for sipping… we won’t judge)
- 2 tablespoons mustard ( Dijon works wonders)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs for garnish (if you feel fancy)
Instructions: Let’s Get Cooking!
Now that we have all our gear ready, let’s fire up the grill and make some magic happen!
- First, get those two pounds of pork into a large bowl. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, beer, mustard, vegetable oil, and season with salt and pepper. Mix it all up as if you’re giving it a warm hug!
- Cover the bowl and let the pork marinate in your refrigerator for at least 2-4 hours, or even better, overnight if you have the patience. Trust me; it’s worth the wait!
- Once marinated, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Drain the pork from the marinade and let the excess drip off. Don’t forget to keep that marinade—it makes a great basting sauce!
- Grill the pork steak for about 7-10 minutes on each side or until it’s got those beautiful grill marks and is cooked to your liking. Brush with the reserved marinade while cooking for extra flavor!
- Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes, slice it up, and garnish with some fresh herbs if you’re feeling snazzy.
And there you have it! Serve with your favorite sides, maybe some potatoes, or a crisp salad, and you’re ready to indulge in this German delight. Happy grilling!
