COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Remove Porchetta a day before you are planning to cook it to let the skin dry for a crisper skin. Remove the netting but keep tied. Damp dry with paper towels and leave in the refrigerator for 24-36 hours uncovered. 

2. Remove from refrigerator at least an hour or 2 before cooking to temper to room temperature. 

3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Convection bake if possible. Season Porchetta with kosher salt and black pepper and put on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. 

4. Cook for approximately 2.5 hours depending on the size. Throw a few halved lemons in during the last 15 min. Not in the fat... 

5. You are looking for an internal temp of about 135 degrees. Let rest for at least 15- 20 minutes before slicing. Blast for 15 mins before serving at 400 to crisp up the skin if necessary. 

6. Remove strings. Slice and serve
