 Cut off watermelon ends

There’s nothing wrong with cutting off the watermelon ends. You can use those ends later, but now you are able to start peeling the watermelon. A large knife is key because you need a certain amount of help to make it through the heavy peel on most watermelons.

Stand the watermelon on its end to peel

Now you need to put the watermelon on its end and then you can start peeling it. This step achieves two goals: first, the once–round watermelon is not unstable anymore; second, you can easily see where the tough peel ends.

Cut off all of the peel

Now you are ready to cut off all of the peel and get to the sweet, juicy part of the watermelon that you’ll enjoy eating later. If you missed any bits of peel or white rind anywhere trim it off.
