Pork Belly Burnt End Question

Posts: 25
Been reading all the threads on Pork Belly Burnt Ends and I have to try this. One question, do you all make this as your main course of a meal or just as appetizers?

I think most here probably use them as apps - they're about the right size for that.tharding said:Been reading all the threads on Pork Belly Burnt Ends and I have to try this. One question, do you all make this as your main course of a meal or just as appetizers?
But it's not hard to make a meal out of a batch if you want, because they're so rich. I've definitely done that."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

I go with apps as well but you can scale the quantity up if you wish. As @JohnInCarolina notes, be aware of the rich flavor profile. they will fill you up in short order.
Enjoy the cook and follow-on eats.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint. -

Apps, for sure. They are so rich. Something about all that butter and brown sugar.
On second thought, they'd work for a desert too.New Albany, Ohio -
It's difficult not to make them a main course. They are too delicious to stop eating just as an appetizer.Large Egg, PGS A40 gasser.

I always cook the belly from Costco in three pieces, until an internal temp of 145 with whatever rub you want, then I cube it and add bbq sauce of choice and some butter, back on the egg for 30 min and serve.

Do you cover the pan with foil or leave uncovered?
