placxe the pork, fat-side up, in a roasting pan. using a sharp knife make small cuts on the meat. mash the garlic, oregano, salt,pepper, and oil into a paste. rub garlic paste all over the pork, being sure to get in the cuts you made. so the salt can penetrate the meat and pull out the mositure. cover the pork with plastic wrap and let ot marinate int the refrigerator overnight.

how do you get the fat crispy

[atwill44]

to get the fat crispy, just sear of fry the meat at a high temperature quickly on all sides, just till all sides are brown including fat especially, this will make it crispy and just perfect in side after you bake it as regular. so fry outside, then bake!

this is a good recipe! Just like my grandma's!
