Ingredients

3 lb boneless pork shoulder or loin roast
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1 onion, quartered
2 carrots, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Score the pork skin in a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. Pat dry with paper towels.
Mix olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Rub mixture all over the pork, working into the scores.
Place onion, carrots, and celery in a roasting pan. Set pork on top, skin side up. Pour chicken broth into the pan, not over the skin.
Roast at 450°F for 20 minutes to start crackling, then reduce oven to 325°F (160°C). Continue roasting until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C), about 1 hour 40 minutes more.
Remove from oven, tent with foil, and let rest 15-20 minutes before slicing. Serve with pan juices.

Tips

For extra crispy crackling, leave the pork uncovered in the fridge overnight to dry out the skin.
Let the roast rest before slicing to retain juices.
Serve with roasted vegetables and apple sauce.
