🔥 Cooking Method (recommended – oven/Dutch oven)
Slow roasting for tenderness + a high-heat finish for browning
1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 160–170°C.
2️⃣ Season with salt and pepper and rub with olive oil, lemon, oregano, and garlic.
3️⃣ Place in a roasting pan/Dutch oven with ½–1 glass of water or stock.
4️⃣ Roast covered for 3–4 hours (depending on weight).
5️⃣ Uncover and increase the oven temperature to 200–220°C for 15–25 minutes for a nice crust.
6️⃣ Let it “rest” for 10–15 minutes before carving.
✅ Ready when the meat pulls away easily and the juices run clear.
