  • @aaronc608 LOL

  • my method is score the rind , coat with white wine vinegar OR oil , then rub in salt , roast in high heat for 20 mins then reduce for the remaining cooking time , perfect crackling every time !

  • repulsive! pig skin and fat....... seriously. wtf!

  • I thought the title said roast lion :(

  • yummm cracking

  • Good video, however after drying the skin, it gives an even better result if you rub the skin all over with extra virgin olive oil then rub in the salt, preferably sea salt.

  • @chefkoo OH YEAH THATS FUCKING MONEY RIGHT THERE, FUCKING MONEY!

  • I love River Cottage. Hugh is awesome. Very entertaining to watch on tele. Great food and lifestyle advice without being 'preachy'

  • This and Marco Pierre White's Crackling from Great British Feast episode 1 part 3 are so delicious mmmmmm

  • Hey guys a cool way to also do the seasoning is to make a compund salt.. you grind everything herbs and all until its a nice green salt and then rub it in ! dee fucking licious
