GoFrogs91 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Tried my first Porchetta this week. I went with a non-traditional recipe that used the pork belly, but omitted the loin. It was awesome! I will definitely do it again. The skin on the outside crisped up nicely and the meat was luxuriously tender. Super easy! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 What was your secret to crispy skin? I've done this once, with the loin inside, and the skin on mine didn't come out nearly as nice as yours! Despite the color, it was more chewy than crispy - think pork taffy. Interesting, but not what I wanted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFrogs91 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Baking powder on the outside. Even at 320F, the skin started to bubble and crisp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
