Roast Pork with Perfect Crackling every time – So Easy just 4 ingredients!



Roast pork has to be one of my favourite meats and this is the way that I always cook mine, simple but so delicious showcasing the flavour of the pork itself.

I have roasted a pork leg joint here but this method also works perfectly for a pork shoulder as well.

  3. ive just bought a huge one in lidl £4 27 its massive but the roast beef one was £11, 98 , no way thats weird ,Any way ive cut it in half put half in freezer ,The piece i have now i put it in on number 8 for 35 minutes. and ive just turned it down now for another hour . think that will be ok . And if my cats keep begging soon as i pick up tea towel And open oven door they appear . There going in soon on gas 4 for 5 hours .

  4. Awesome video thank you for sharing. I’m new to pork roast. I’ve only made a handful but every single one has turned out 100% amazing. Tender juicy and delicious. Just like I remember from childhood my mother made large family dinners every single night with a roast once a wk as well. I never cooked pork until I hit 30, I always thought it was a cheap meat for some reason. (Ham of course I did regularly just not any other type of pork or pork roast) Then when I had it at my auntie’s house for dinner one night I almost died when I remembered THIS has been the roast I’ve been trying to find and make from my childhood!! I went to her farm were she purchased it and got several for my freezer(because she lives 5hours away and I wanted to support her farm in their small community because clearly they were raising good animals!!) I just struggle with getting good crackling. I usually get a very small chunk that crunches but the rest just doesn’t look or taste right. I’ve never tried the additional oil so im excited to try that tonight on my roast. I usually let the skin side down rest for 24h in an inch of salt then brush it all off before cooking but it never worked for me. So I hope this way will work because I didn’t have the time in advance this roast as I just picked it up couple hours ago. Im going to let it Come to room temp then in the oven it goes. And I as well never season my pork beyond salt pepper and garlic. But your right, it does burn. I thought it was my garlic powder that burns but it might be the pepper as well as I think im using way too much of it. I’ll try it exactly this way tonight. I have a smaller 2kg roast but it’s more then enough for my husband and I for dinner and left overs. I was instructed this time to have more left overs so I got a 2kg instead of a 1.5kg. I hope that’s enough for two night dinners and a few snacks!! Thank you for your recipe I appreciate the help as we don’t like to eat out and prefer to eat at home and that means I cook everything and need help! 😂 🙏🥰🌼🙏
