It was a success... if you could see my boy's face when he tried it
Crackling didn't work, but doesn't matter... will try the boiling water next time, and leave him in charge of it
Ta sheo, and bob. Definitely making it again!
HOORAY! Espesh about his face! Hahahah ACE!
I don't think boiling water would make any difference here, tbf - it's just not a dish for crackling I reckon because it's covered and steaming/braising for such a long time while it's cooking so the skin/fat gets too wet and.....errrrr....flabby
iykwim? I mean I imagine it to be more of a dish that just uses the meat - except that you keep the fat on while it's cooking to keep it moist and add flavour.
Defo worth a try tho hehe but you don't miss it anyway cos it's so fucking tasty eh? And I suppose you just point out to the boy that it's healthier that way, so he can eat MORE.
For crispy crackling and tender meat though (and again, very, very tasty) I would really, REALLY recommend the Rick Stein one!

Aaaaanyway - I've just prepared BOTH my lots of pork - the Rick Stein one for tomorrow and the bun cha for today and am going to do my oat crumble topping in a minute for the pear and plum (found one of those floating around too) crumble so I'll have no excuses today not to have a proper dinner, although I quite enjoyed my crisps last night. :-o

No, no, no... it ABSOLUTELY makes a difference for pork that you're roasting in a normal way - even if it's slow cooked, so long as it's uncovered (the Rick Stein recipe does it - that's why you brought it to my mind yesterday and MADE WE WALK ALL THE WAY TO SAINSBURYS IN THE POURING RAIN
) but the pulled pork recipes generally cook for a very long time, with some liquid in the pot (with the pork either sitting in it, or above it) but covered for the duration so that it braises or steams - so it's a very different way of cooking it and I don't think that doing the boiling water over it first thing would actually make very much difference in that case. IYSWIM! Dumbass!

gonna stick it in very soon - i'm using a different recipe to yours which doesn't require as much time, but i'm tempted to cook it longer from your recipe.

Well it won't do it any harm just to leave it till you're hungry (so long as the temp is reasonably low)!

i don't trust my oven, so will have to be flexible about timing - i just hope we're not eating at ten again (timing is always a problem for me )
oh, and i'm going to make a delicious almond and honey cake for pud.

worked it out now!
Yesterday we went to German Market in Brum but it was raining & mobbed so we didn't eat/drink there and ended up going for a curry. Place we went to does a amazing paneer sizzler but not so good on curries now but did used to be good.
Tonight will probably be shop bought spinach tortollini pasta & tomato & basil sauce.

True. I have been known to eat an unadventurous sandwich, too. What has become of me.

Hope you get it scraped moose
OU... your pud sounds lush!
I still can't get to the PC so no photo sheo. I reckon you're right about the crackling for that dish, and tbf I do most of the cooking and don't like crackling, so won't bother next time
Tonight is more pork and garlic portabello shrooms
