Pork Roast Tips
11 Answers
Hi, I have a 1kg pork shoulder joint. Can anyone tell me how long I need to roast it for? Don't usually do a pork roast as usually get chops. Want to do crackling too if anyone has any good tips for that. Will be for tonight and tomorrow for tea.
Got some potatoes to roast too, little new potatoes as easier to carry so will be putting them in to roast too.
Not done a proper roast for ages :)
Apologies for any late reply, on bus home.

Should have gone and got some loose potatoes as don't need many or a big bag but was too tired to get to a bigger store. Next time :)
Have had issues scoring the fat on the pork, I need a sharper knife!

No, I managed to stab it a bit so not quite scored but close-ish! It looked lightly scored anyway.
Potatoes are now boiled and ready for sticking in later. Learnt my lesson as bigger potatoes would have been easier to peel too.
Just over an hour to go so can watch some Strictly, stick the potatoes in in about 15/20 mins then just need to do my peas and gravy later, will probably do them when I've taken the joint out, give it time to rest.
