    If you don't have the budget to buy free rage organic pork which cold cost more than $10 per KG than pork from the supermarket, buy the normal stuff from the super market that is in the pre packaged vac packs and take it out the vac pack the night before and put it in the fridge uncovered over night. The fridge drys the skin out over night and the crackle works out perfectly.

    Dear Gill, Thanks a lot for sharing your tips&Tricks on pork crackling. I have tried your way on last Tuesday, welcoming 10 guests inclusive Canton natives, all of our guests were very happy. All the credit is to you and to the butcher house "ferme du bouret" as the only thing I did was salt&pepper + setting oven temperature right. It was simply delicious. In this way, anyone can cook (Remy's way). Thanks a lot

    Well, I did this and I am a kitchen rank amateur. Easy to understand, nice and short, and the product of my labour was equally phenomenal and delicious. I have to admit though, to get the crispiness scale up, I had to go 500degF (Broil) for about 5minutes). Otherwise, cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and perfect colouring. I am quite amazed. Mazeltov!

All you have to do is figure out the cause and have another crack at it. Patience, persistence and perseverance and you can do it! Good luck.

    I'm going to try this... it's backwards from the Danish way, where we put it under high heat at the end rather than the beginning. I'm curious to see how it works. Will let you know in a few hours how it goes. Our "flæskesteg" classic pork roast to Christmas dinner is usually without bone... but is basically the same as yours, but it comes already scored, we merely have to be sure the scores are correct, and cut all the way through... without cutting the meat as you say. You don't have the pork on a rack, which intrigues me also. Thanks for the tip.
