For a deeper flavor, consider browning the pork cubes in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. This adds a rich, caramelized note to the dish. Adjust the amount of beer to your preference. For a less pronounced beer flavor, you can substitute with chicken broth or apple cider. If fresh dill weed is unavailable, 1/2 teaspoon of dried dill weed can be used as a substitute. Ensure the pork is cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for optimal safety and tenderness.
