    Drool. Doubledrool. Gorgeous!
  • I’m just made some myself. I used Malcolms method the 1st time I did them.  And have used variations of the same ever since. 

    1. Basically smoke for a couple hours until cubes get to around 190. 

    2. Then in pan for an hour or so with brown sugar honey and butter. 

    3. Then drain and drizzle with thick BBQ sauce. I like Blues Hog. I like to place them back it the egg until then BBQ sauce and the pork have become “one”. 

    Just keep it simple. A lot of room for variations.

    Coated in Dizzy Dust, then Egged for about 1:45 at 250.  Then I put them in the butter, brown sugar, and honey bath.  At 5 this evening I’ll pull them and glaze with the bbq sauce/ apple juice mix ( I don’t have any apple jelly, sadly).  I can’t wait to try these bad boys out!

    Gettin’ sticky!  For the glaze, I used a bourbon flavored bbq sauce, apple juice, bourbon-barrel aged maple syrup, and a dash of Red Hot.  Simmered on the stovetop for a bit, then poured over the pork belly.  Mmm, meat candy!!!

    these all look great!!  thinking of trying for a get together tomorrow.  if i finish them at home and then its an hour before serving them, how do they stand up to a quick reheat?  assume they will still be ok cooling off a bit and then reheating?  thx v much!

    No problem with a reheat but they may be good to go right out of container if you give them a good wrap.  FWIW-
