Hog Spit-Roast

Step 8 Rub salt into the wounds

Using your hands, rub the coarse cooking salt into the scores. Work it well into the cracks and you will have crackling that people will talk about for ages.

Finally, drizzle some of the remaining basting over the hog and pat as much as possible of the remaining salt onto the outside skin.

Keep some of the basting sauce for near the end of the cooking process for finishing off the roast after the crackling has been removed.
