Porchetta | Basics with Babish

Pay it forward with pork this holiday season using #HamsAcrossAmerica! #ad Thanks to National Pork Board for sponsoring this video. Visit https://www.pork.org/HamsAcrossAmerica to learn more!

For a different kind of holiday roast, you can make a wildly impressive porchetta. It's great with some potatoes and vegetables, but my favorite way to eat it is slicing it and serving as a sandwich.
