Season the joint just prior to roasting
Choose a large, heavy based roasting tray, ideally with deep sides and handles for easy movement
Season with good quality sea salt
Place the joint skin side up onto the vegetables, garlic & lemon which should line the base of the tray
Place in centre of oven and roast for 20 minutes until golden brown
Next add half a bottle of wine and the same of water to the tray and pot roast by covering with tin foil and cooking o 140 oc for 2 to 3 hours nice and slow, ensure the meat pulls away easily when pierced with a fork
