Do I untie roast before cooking?
No. The string will help keep the roast in a uniform shape which allows for more even cooking. If you really dislike the string, you could remove it, but expect the outer pieces to get a bit overcooked. You can also cut the roast into chunks to cook it which would reduce the cooking time as well.
Do you cut the string off pork before cooking?
Remove your pork from the fridge about an hour before you plan to start cooking it. Remove any packaging (except string if it’s a rolled joint – the string will help it keep its shape) and pat the meat and skin dry. You want to cut right through the skin and slightly into the fat, but don’t penetrate the flesh.
