COOKING TIP: You’ll want to thaw this roast before cooking, by either placing it in the fridge for a day, or under running water for about an hour. Once thawed, remove the outer plastic layer, but keep the inner cloth netting on. You can brine, marinate or season the roast however you like. Pop the thawed and seasoned roast in a lightly greased shallow baking pan and pop it into a 375°F (190°C) oven for approx. 1-1.5hrs, or until a thermometer inserted into the centre reads at least 165°F (74°C). Once cooked, remove from heat, cover with foil, and let rest for about 10-15 minutes. After this rest, it will be easier to remove the outer netting, before slicing and serving. Make sure to refrigerate those leftovers!
