After the rest, remove some of the point end. Try cutting it completely off through the fat seam to recover as much point as possible.

13

Cube the point into 1 inch cubes.

Place the cubes into a foil tray or oven tray and pour in the liquid, cover with foil tightly and cook for about half an hour. You can then remove the foil and let the sauce reduce in the pan until very sticky.
