I cut the skin back, cover the whole thing (not the skin) in honey etc and put the skin back and secure with cocktail sticks… best of both worlds  

It just someone was telling me to salt the skin 24hours before cooking to draw out the moisture and get really crispy crackling.

I'd cook them separately, do crackling hot and fast and ham as standard, but yeah I guess leaving it on will draw out more moisture but don't think I'd bother

You and Arry turn out some great grub ! And the fact you've probably laid 2 acres of slabs ,or 3 miles of fencing during the day ! I'm guessing you enjoy the cooking ? It's quite relaxing, music on ,beer on the go ,

I've par simmered spuds to death, they're resting salted ready for fridge made leeks in white sauce , gonna precook sprouts which I'm doing in a pan with butter and parsley, that'll leave me pigs, stuffing balls and turkey (on the BBQ) and carrots and peas for tomorrow. Got a gammon in the oven kids want it with pineapple rings? And new potatoes for tonight , I'm hoping they sleep well after that ...lol
