1 x crown roast of pork (14-16 points, approximately 2.9kg)
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons sage chopped
Salt and Pepper
Method
Step 1
Soak your Apple Wood Chunks for two hours in water.
Step 2
Set up your Weber Kettle for indirect normal fire cooking method. Light your Heat Beads either by using the supplied charcoal baskets or a chimney starter.
Step 3
While the barbecue is heating, prepare the crown roast of pork.
Step 4
Remove the pork from the fridge and rub the olive oil, sage, salt and pepper all over the pork.

To help prevent the bones from burning, wrap aluminum foil individually around the bones.

Once the coals are ashed over, separate the baskets using tongs. Place drip trays between the two fires- must be large enough to catch all of the drips. Place the cooking grill on the barbecue with the grill handles directly over the fires.

Place the pork roast in the centre of the cooking grill. Ensure all vents are open and place the lid on.

Cook for approximately 2 hours or until done to your liking.
Serve the roast with vegetables, or salad of your choice.
