Southwest France — Gascon Main Dishes
Roasting too hot (exterior dries before interior renders). Not scoring the fat cap (prevents even rendering). Using lean pork without adequate fat (dry, disappointing result). Slicing while hot (falls apart, should be cooled in fat first). Removing the garlic before roasting (it should melt into the meat).
