Celebrating my birthday with some amazing pork belly burnt ends.  Cubed, seasoned, smoked low and slow for 3 hours, then finished in some spicy BBQ sauce and honey.  




Soaking up the BBQ sauce:



Paired it with a tomato/mozzarella and basil salad and crusty French bread:




Damn tasty!   B)

    Nailed it for sure.  Congrats on the cook.  
    By chance did you leverage off the Malcom Reed recipe as that is about the best I have found?

    Thank you Lou!   I used Matt's recipe from the Meat Church:   https://www.meatchurch.com/blogs/recipes/pork-belly-burnt-ends 

    I created my own bbq sauce though  (no Meat Mitch Naked sauce handy   :s  )
