Critical Success Points

  • Scoring the pork skin deeply without cutting into the meat
  • Ensuring the skin is completely dry before the high‑heat start
  • Initial 30‑minute blast at 230 °C for crackling formation
  • Monitoring the grill step closely to avoid burnt skin

Safety Warnings

  • Use oven mitts when handling hot trays and racks.
  • The grill step can cause flare‑ups; never leave the oven unattended.
  • Sharp knives are required for scoring and carving; cut away from your body.
