  Had to use pork shoulder for this and was still amazing. I cooked it in a clay pot which kept the meat very tender and moist.

  Very tasty recipe... but it was a little confusing when talking about the crackling. Same baking tray? Different baking tray? Point 2 could have been a little clearer

  A bit time consuming (as opposed to bunging meat in and leaving it for hours!) but utterly worth it... the meat was delicious and the apples complimented it perfectly. It all disappeared! Served to 6 hungry adults, and a little spare for sandwiches... I am a happy bunny!

  Really delicious twist on roast pork, scored 9.5 with the family. I simplified the recipe a bit rather than stuffing the apples I just cooked them down with the onions & cider with a splash of white wine vinegar as a sauce, everyone loved it. I also increased the garlic and rosemary inserted into the meat at the start too. So I'd recommend and you can afford to use artistic licence

  I love this site and am an avid reader of BBC GF and always come here when I'm looking for inspiration for something to cook. My only niggle is that whenever I print out a recipe from the web site, as I've just tried to do with this one, the ingredients list doesn't print out. I have to copy and paste the ingredients into a word document and print it off separately. I've just also tried to convert the page to a PDF document but again no ingredients. Is it just me? Where am I going wrong? Can your IT team advise/help?

  Made this today it was scrummy. Was a little confused with step 2 and what to do with the rind, I put it on a separate baking tray and I think this was the right thing to do, it was lovely And crispy and the meat was covered with the dark juices. Really nice. Will make again for Christmas.

  Enjoyed by the whole family! Again it was a little confusing with the rind, where to put it and whether to cover it with foil. I found it should be put in a separate dish and uncovered.
