When we think of the term “barbecue,” one of the first things that comes to mind is a smoky barbecue sauce or liquid. This is a time honored style of cooking that hails from Central and South America, but is also popular in many other parts of the world, particularly in countries that have historically been near the equator. In the past few years, barbecued meat has been popularized by the quick food trend, but in reality, barbecue cooking techniques are some of the oldest around. Originally, there were no large-scale stores of foods that needed to be prepared and stored, so methods of cooking and preservation were developed to allow people to maintain a supply of food at any time. The way that these foods were prepared are called “barbecue cooking techniques.”
Why you should eat this
Pig belly is the unsung hero of barbecue. By itself, it’s a treat. But with just a little sauce, it becomes a perfectly satisfying meal that’s hard to top. You can buy a whole pig belly from a butcher, but I find it easier to buy a pork belly in small portions and keep it in the freezer. Once you’ve defrosted and sliced it, it’s simple to cook and just as tasty as the fresh version. It’s important to choose a tender cut like the middle shoulder, as it’s less likely to toughen up while cooking. If you’re cooking for just one person, remember to buy extra belly to freeze. To make it less fatty, make a thin marinade of soy sauce, brown sugar and five-spice powder. Heat the pork belly in a non-stick frying pan, then cook it for 5-10 minutes per side, depending on how tender you like it.
What does Smoked pork belly do for you?
Being part of the team behind this video, I wanted to share some of the hard work that goes into the making of our videos. As you might know, meat is an expensive and hard-to-find ingredient, so we take a lot of the hard work out of the equation. So, the first step to smoking the meat is to create a rub. This can be a compound you make at home, or something you can purchase online. Our recipe for the pork belly rub is: 1 tbsp brown sugar, 2 tsp garlic powder, 2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp paprika, 1/4 tsp celery salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. The next step is to season the pork belly. We chose to do this with a brine, which is just salt water. This helps to season the meat. The brine can be any kind of liquid, but we chose to use water and salt. You can also try to make your own brine, and some recipes for brine can be found online. After you brine, dry the pork belly in the fridge for 12 hours. As you can see, the pork belly looks amazing right away. It’s ready for the next step, smoking.
Finishing
This is a long process, so I suggest you don’t start it on a week day. You can find pork belly in the meat section of your grocery store. It’s usually sold in packs of 4 or 6 pieces, though it will come in smaller packs as well. You can ask your butcher for a chunk of pork belly and they’ll be able to cut it for you. When you get it home, cut it in half, and then separate it into two halves. Now, you can rub it with some salt, pepper and Chinese 5 spice, and then sear it on a high heat in a pan. It should be enough to sizzle just enough to get a good sear on it, but not too much so that it starts to burn. Let it go for a while, then flip it over and sear the other side, and then do the same thing. When you’re done, leave it alone until it’s cooled off a little bit. Then, in a large ovenproof pot, put some cooking oil, and then put the pork belly into the pot. You should be able to just put one big piece in the pot. Put it into a moderate oven, 450 degrees, and cook it for about an hour. When it’s cooked, then let it cool for about 5-10 minutes. Now, to carve it, you’ll want to first split the pork belly in half, leaving the skin
Cool
In this video, we show you how to cook a smoked pork belly. This is a great dish to make for those times when you have guests over. It’s easy to make and requires minimal effort. We start off by smoking a pork belly. We then sear the pork belly for a few minutes to get some color. After that, we remove the skin and pat the rest of the pork belly dry. We finish the pork belly with a glaze. The glaze is a combination of soy sauce, apple juice and honey. For the sauce, we combine soy sauce, brown sugar, white wine, crushed red pepper flakes and some freshly squeezed orange juice. Then we cook the whole thing for about 2 hours. When the pork belly is done cooking, we slice it and serve it with some brown rice.
