DIRECTIONS

  1. In preparation for cooking, allow pork belly to sit covered for 20-30 minutes to reach room temperature.
  2. Light your Pit Barrel® according to the instructions.
  3. Generously coat the non-fat side of the pork belly with Beef & Game Pit Rub.
  4. Flip the meat over and cut a criss-cross pattern into the fat to help crisp and render the fat.

  8. Cook another 1–1.5 hours until internal temp reaches 195º.
  9. Remove paper and place fat-side down, crack the lid, cook 20 minutes to crisp.
  10. Remove and cut into 1/4″ slices.
