Categories     main-dish

Time 4h20m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 whole pork belly (6 to 8 pounds), skin removed
1/4 cup favorite BBQ rub
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup favorite BBQ sauce
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon favorite hot sauce

Steps:

  • Set up a smoker or grill with a smoke box to 300 degrees F using cherry, apple or hickory wood.
  • Cut the pork belly into 2-inch-wide strips, then into 2-inch cubes. Toss in a bowl with the BBQ rub and oil. Lay out the cubes fat-side down on a wire rack, with a bit of space between each cube.
  • Place the rack in the smoker or on the grill over indirect heat and cook until the cubes are a deep mahogany and permeated with smoke, about 2 hours.
  • Place the pork belly cubes into an aluminum pan. Sprinkle all over with the butter pieces and brown sugar. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, return to the smoker or the grill over indirect heat and cook until super tender, another 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar and hot sauce. Remove the aluminum foil, pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the pork belly cubes and toss to coat. Place back in the smoker or on the grill and cook, uncovered, until caramelized, another 5 to 10 minutes.

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Buffet, Starter

Time 3h45m

Yield Serves 6-8 with other canapés

Number Of Ingredients 7

200ml bourbon whiskey
1 star anise
800g pork belly
4 tbsp tomato ketchup
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp clear honey
chives and soured cream, to serve (optional)

CHINESE-STYLE GLAZED PORK BELLY RECIPE BY TASTY



Chinese-style Glazed Pork Belly Recipe by Tasty image

This Chinese-style pork belly is sweet, salty, and perfectly tender. Slowly cooking the pork in a flavorful mixture of garlic, ginger, and brown sugar gives it that signature sticky-sweet glaze that pairs perfectly with salty soy sauce. Serve it over rice for the ultimate dinner and forget you ever wanted to order take-out.

Provided by Alvin Zhou

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

20 oz pork belly, lean
4 cups water, plus 250 milliliters, divided
4 slices of fresh ginger
1 spring onion, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) pieces
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
3 tablespoons shaoxing rice wine
cooked rice, for serving
sliced green onion, for serving

Steps:

  • Cut the pork belly into roughly 1-inch (2 ½ cm) cubes.
  • Bring 1 liter of water to a boil in a pot, then add the pork, ginger, onion, and garlic, and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Remove the pork from the water using a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with a paper towel. Discard the remaining water and vegetables.
  • Clean and dry the pot, then return it to high heat and add the olive oil. Return the pork to the pan and cook until browned. The oil may pop and splatter, so be careful.
  • Add the brown sugar, then reduce the heat to low. Stir continuously until the sugar has melted, caramelized, and coated the pork evenly.
  • Immediately add the soy sauces and rice wine, stirring continuously for 5-6 minutes more, or until the liquid has reduced to a thick glaze.
  • Add the remaining 250 milliliters of water. Stir, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes. Make sure the mixture is at a low simmer, not boiling. Stir every 10 minutes or so, adding more water if the pot is getting dry.
  • Remove the lid. The sauce should coat the pork in a very thick glaze. If it is too runny, continue to stir, uncovered, until the liquid has reduced.
  • Serve immediately over a bowl of rice and sprinkle with sliced green onions.

Tips:

  • Choose Quality Pork Belly: Select pork belly with good marbling and a thick layer of skin. This will help ensure a crispy and flavorful result.
  • Score the Skin: Use a sharp knife to score the pork belly skin in a cross-hatch pattern. This will help the skin crisp up and allow the flavors to penetrate.
  • Use a Dry Rub: Apply a mixture of salt, pepper, and other spices to the pork belly before cooking. This will help enhance the flavor and create a delicious crust.
  • Roast Slowly: Roast the pork belly at a low temperature for an extended period. This will help render the fat and create a tender and juicy interior.
  • Glaze with Honey: In the last 30 minutes of cooking, brush the pork belly with a honey glaze. This will add a sweet and sticky coating to the pork belly.

Conclusion:

Honey-glazed crispy pork belly is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips and steps outlined in this article, you can create a pork belly that is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with flavor.
