Sear the pork collar, then slowly braise it in dark beer with onions, caraway seeds, and a tablespoon of mustard until tender. The beer gives the sauce a slightly bitter flavor, while the softened onions thicken it. Serve with Slovak bread dumplings or bread.

Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
Sear the pork
10 minLightly pound the pork collar slices, season with salt and pepper, and lightly coat one side with flour. Sear in the lard until golden brown on both sides, then remove from the pan.
Cook the onions
10 minCut the onions into half-moons and cook in the pan drippings until golden brown. Add the caraway seeds and mustard and stir.
Braise
1 hr 15 minPour in the beer, return the pork to the pan, cover, and simmer over low heat for 1 hour 15 minutes, until tender. Turn the pork occasionally and add a little water as needed.
Serve
Let the sauce simmer uncovered briefly at the end to thicken. Serve with Slovak bread dumplings or bread.
Tip: Choose a dark lager that is not too bitter for braising, as the bitterness becomes more pronounced during the long cooking time.
