2. Prepare the Beer Marinade:

   • In a mixing bowl, combine the beer, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir well to ensure the flavors are fully incorporated.

3. Marinate the Pork Chops:

   • Place the pork chops in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
   • Pour the beer marinade over the pork chops, ensuring they are evenly coated.
   • Let the pork chops marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

4. Sauté the Mushrooms:

   • In the same skillet, place the marinated pork chops.
   • Cook the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through.

6. Assemble and Bake:

   • Arrange the sautéed mushrooms on top of the pork chops in the oven-safe dish.
   • Pour any remaining beer marinade over the pork chops and mushrooms.
   • Cover the dish with aluminum foil to seal in the flavors.
   • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, allowing the pork chops to become tender and infused with the beer flavor.
