That's the whole pig, though, so there's a lot more fat than the stuff we buy already cut up.
I suppose you could roast a whole pork butt, since it still has a pretty high fat content.
Like I said, I'm not an expert.

We buy a half pig every year from one of my husband's farmer uncles and those pork roasts are some of THE BEST roasting there is. There is quite a bit more fat left on the butchered ones than store bought, I think.

I tried biscuits on convection roast and they cooked too fast. Still was very good just didn't rise as well as they should have and were a tad black on the outside.
Interesting.

I usually don't use convection for any baking because it cooks too fast.

About the only time i use the convection is for baking - I find things come out much better.
Cooking meats and stuff, not so much.

The trick, I have discovered, is to reduce the temp by about 25 degrees on average, and reduce the cooking time by about 1/4. Or at least, start checking around that time, because it cooks things much faster...but much more evenly too, I think!

Ours auto-decreases the temp by 25F
And I agree - cooking time is cut as well. I mainly use it for biscuits and rolls and junk, so knock off anywhere btwn 3-5 minutes.
