    Although Prep starts before hand. This is doable. I cooked it for XMAS '11. The Butcher was happy to take the skin off for me. It was a lovely dish yet not an absolute wow kind of dish. The Crackling was incredible. And i've kept all the fat to cook with which was a bonus. You can time the prep for say half an hour for 2 nights or a little more.
