Basting

dry, bland meat. The technique requires brushing liquid onto the roast with a pastry brush. Pan drippings, stock, watered down marinade and herbed butter are usually used to baste.

Many cooks believe that basting is an inaffective way to achieve a crispy roast and takes longer to cook, but there are many experienced cooks who disagree. It all depends on how skilled you are and the type of method you used. The gentler the meat cooks, the juicer. Basting contains fat and protein which helps brown the roast.

You can achieve a crispy crackling roast and maintain it's natural juices. Once the meat begins to give off liquid which is usually half way into cooking time, baste it with the juices from the bottom of the pan and return to the oven, you may baste again if required. Once the roast is fully cooked, remove from oven and allow to cool.
Gordon Ramsay: "Why does the turkey look like my grandmas face, did you start basting it half way?"
Chef : "Yeah I did"
Gordon Ramsay: "It is so burnt it looks like Ghandhi's sandals, i bet you basted it while it was cooling down"
Chef: "Just a little"
Gordon Ramsay: "You f***** idiot, don't you that once the roast is finally out of the oven, you can't baste it anymore"
Chef meh: " Oh"
Gordon Ramsay: "My grandmas face looks better than what you just dished out"
