Griskin of pork weighing 6 lbs

🥘 Ingredients

Pork; a little powdered sage. [Illustration: SPARE-RIB OF PORK.] [Illustration: GRISKIN OF PORK.]

👨‍🍳 Method

As this joint frequently comes to table hard and dry, particular care should be taken that it is well basted. Put it down to a bright fire, and flour it. About 10 minutes before taking it up, sprinkle over some powdered sage; make a little gravy in the dripping-pan, strain it over the meat, and serve with a tureen of apple sauce. This joint will be done in far less time than when the skin is left on, consequently, should have the greatest attention that it be not dried up.

📜 From Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management (1861). Public domain.

Old-fashioned cooking done right

I tried roasting a griskin of pork this week, recalling the simplicity of Mrs. Beeton's methods. I found the process delightfully straightforward, with the key being to baste and baste again, ensuring the meat remained moist and succulent. The sage was a pleasant surprise; it lent an earthy aroma that permeated the pork beautifully, a subtle touch that elevated the dish without overpowering it. This recipe is perfect for the weeknight cook who craves a touch of nostalgia. The griskin, being leaner than other cuts, cooks quickly and is forgiving to those who might underestimate the timing. I served it with a side of apple sauce, as suggested, and the tartness cut through the richness of the pork wonderfully. The gravy made from the drippings was the perfect finishing touch. Next time, I'll try a splash of port in the gravy.
