Method

  1. To make the glaze, put the Guinness, honey and sugar into a pan. Reduce by almost half to form a sweet syrupy glaze, then allow to cool.
  2. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Season the pork with pepper and salt, if you want, place on a baking tray and roast for 20 mins. Then turn the heat down to 160C/fan 140C/gas3. Remove the pork from the oven and brush all over with most of the glaze (reserving a few tbsp) cook for a further 40-50 mins, brushing and basting the pork as it cooks until it's beautifully caramelised and glazed.
  3. Remove the pork from the roasting tray and leave to rest. Pour the remaining glaze into the roasting tray, then add the wine, Champagne or water. Place the pan on the heat and bring everything to the boil, simmer for a few mins until you have thick gravy. Carve pork into thin slices and place on top of the colcannon (see separate recipe). Glaze with the Guinness syrup, drizzle a little on the plates and finish with a sprig of parsley.

    Was very good, but took forever to reduce the glaze. Would add perhaps a few shakes of crushed red peppers or some such to the glaze -- when first tried, it seemed to be missing something, but when we put it with a spicy turnip gratin, the mix was fantastic. Will definitely make again!

    Found the glaze to be a bit rich and took a long time to reduce. Probably wont try this one again.

    I made a slight twist to this reciep by using pork loin chops in a casserole dish with the honey glaze and roasting at 180 degrees for 20 minutes, when cooked I removed the chops and thickened the sauce with a little flower, it was fantastic!

    I cooked this for 3 different dinner parties and each time the guests almost licked the plates. It was delicious. I'll definitely make it again.
