Crackling tips: everybody loves crackling. If possible, remove your roast from its packaging and place on a large plate covered with paper towel.  Allow roast to sit uncovered in the refrigerator overnight. This will allow to skin to dry and make better crackling. If you're not sure about scoring ask your local butcher to do it for you in the pattern you like.  Make sure your roast is brought to room temperature prior to beginning preparation.  Pre-heat your oven at least 15 minutes prior roasting.

If your crackling is not perfect don't panic. Pre-heat the grill to 200°C then place your roast on a tray in the centre of the oven and grill for 4 - 5 minutes watching the rind carefully so it does not burn. You may need to move it around to grill evenly. Remove, stand for 4 - 5 minutes, then serve.
