SWEET-AND-SPICY GLAZED PORK BELLY
Number Of Ingredients 10
Steps:
- Combine in a medium bowl cumin, chile powder, black pepper, salt, and sugar. Remove two tablespoons of the spice mixture and set aside to make the glaze.
- Rub remaining spice mixture all over pork belly. Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.
- In a small saucepan, combine reserved spice mixture, orange zest, 1/4 cup orange juice, cinnamon sticks, and maple syrup. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and cook until slightly thickened and heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set glaze aside.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Remove pork belly from refrigerator and rinse off spice mixture; pat dry with paper towels. Add remaining 1 cup orange juice and chicken stock to a roasting pan. Place over medium-high heat and cook until liquid just comes to a simmer. Add pork, fat side up, to roasting pan. Transfer to oven and cook until meat is very tender and easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
- Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. Cook pork belly until browned and crisp, 30 to 40 minutes more, basting with reserved glaze every 10 minutes.
- Remove pork from roasting pan and transfer to a cutting board; let stand for 10 minutes before slicing into 1/2-by-3-inch pieces.
