Leg of Pork with Cracklings
Not to be confused with ham, a fresh leg of pork is relatively uncommon today. The traditional Cuban way is to dress it with oregano and lemon, an approach that couldn't be easier -- or better.

Cook's Notes
Skin-on leg of pork is not difficult to procure but does need to be ordered ahead of time. To save time, mince garlic in a food processor. One hour may seem like a long time for meat to rest, but because of its size, the pork will still be hot when carved.
