The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. On a winter shoot near Bolter End, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
