Cut horizontally, halfway from top, down length of pork roast to within 3/4 inch of opposite side; open flat. Cut horizontally from inside edge to within 3/4 inch from left side edge; open flat.

Tip: If you like, ask your butcher to cut the roast as directed. This will save you a few minutes in preparation time.
