Excellent cut of pork, I use this to make Char Siu pork, a Cantonese bbq pork I use in stir fry’s. Very succulent and tender.

Brilliant…!! I seared 1.2kg piece all over in a cast iron pan… then 180deg in my AirFryer..! Basted and checked etc, but was done in 50mins… lot less than suggested. Rested and had a very lovely moist roast. Flavour was sublime. (I had bought 2 of these… one for another household to get them into proper pork). 10..!!

Just roasted this to 63 then let it rest for about 25 min. It is superb and because slow roasted got a lot of meat juices to make a sauce. Very tender, juicy and tasty also very good value. I could easily pass this off to my picky family as roast beef. Excellent.
