- Add the black beans, pork shoulder roast, beer, red bell pepper, and jalapeno. Sprinkle evenly with the spices.
- Cover and cook for 7-8 hours on low or 4-5 hours on high.

Notes
- The stew can be made a day ahead of serving. Store it covered in your refrigerator and reheat when ready to serve. You may need to add a little water to get it back to the original consistency.
- Store any leftovers in a closed container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat over low heat or in the microwave. May also be frozen for up to three months.
