Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2

Rub pork legs with salt and pepper on all sides. Set into a deep-rimmed baking sheet. Pour boiling water on top.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Add onion, carrot, caraway seeds, and crushed peppercorns.

Step 4

Continue to roast until pork leg is cooked through, about 90 minutes more. Baste with liquids from the pork every 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
