They've been operating in one form or another for like 20 years and their whole deal is experimenting to find optimal recipes. Kenji Lopez started on that show and has guest appeared recently.

I saw your original reply, claiming I "misremembered".

It took me about 30 seconds to find this: https://www.americastestkitchen.com/recipes/8116-crispy-slow...

That isn't the video I saw, but they still happily fry it:

> Finally, we fry the skin, which causes it to dramatically puff up and crisp.

I don't care how long they've been doing whatever it is they do. If you need to put pork in oil to make the skin crispy you suck at cooking.

Here is the video, right at the point where they make their absolutely ridiculous fucking claim:

> We tried to get that skin crisp in a hot oven and under the broiler, and it just didn't work. The only way to get it crisp was using hot oil.

No need to apologise, I'll just take you deleting your original reply as apology enough.
