Preparation

Preheat the oven at 350^°F.
In a big pan at medium-high heat, add a good drizzle of olive oil and sear the pork on all sides until nicely caramelized, about 15 minutes total. Remove from pan and set a side on a plate.
In the same pan, add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and the apples. Season with salt and pepper and add oil if needed. Cook for 4-5 minutes while stirring often until nicely caramelized.
Deglaze with the white wine and scrape all those flavours in the bottom of the pan! Add the beer, thyme, bay leaves then stir well. Place the porc in the pan then add enough chicken broth to cover the meat.
Bring to a boil, reduce to low heat and cover. Place in the oven and cook for 3 hours until the meat gets ultra tender. Serve in plates, add a splash of the juice and braised veggies and garnish with a bunch of the apple gremolata.
To prepare the gremolata, simple combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Reserve in fridge but do not do prepare it too much in advance.

Our sommeliers suggest

Sterling Vintner's Collection Chardonnay

A wine from California that brings a nice and fresh brightness. Its oak and apple notes will bring up the flavors of this original osso bucco! See the product

La Joufflue, Archibald

You will taste aromas of citrus and coriander seeds in this Belgian white beer that will get along with the fruity notes of this recipe. Notes of orange, lemon and coriander will be delicious with the candied apples in gremolata. Very delicate, the beer will support the pork gently. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
