A meat thermometer will come in handy here. It’s not absolutely necessary, but if you happen to see one, buy it. They’re only a few bucks and they’ll save you a lot of guesswork.

Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F 175°C).

Score the layer of fat on the outside of the roast with a sharp knife. I like to make a checkered pattern, but you can also just carve a few parallel straight lines, I leave that up to you. Place the roast in the middle of a roasting pan.
