[Sca-cooks] let's get back to business; was; knives

[Elaine Koogler]

A couple of weeks back, there was a recipe in the San Francisco Chronicle
for a Slow Roasted Crispy Skinned Pork Roast.  It seems to be a fairly
involved recipe, and takes 14 - 16 hours, but it looked wonderful.  You can
find it if you go to their web site and search for the recipe in the Food
section.  The meat called for is a fresh picnic ham...so it's not your usual
"ham."
