Description

I love bold, smoky, melt-in-your-mouth pork belly… and this one does not disappoint. It’s fatty and delicious and tastes like real pit-smoked pork belly.


Ingredients

  • 5 lb pork belly, cut in half
  • 2 tbsp Killer Hogs Hot Sauce
  • 2 tbsp yellow mustard
  • Killer Hogs Hot Rub (to taste)
  • Killer Hogs TX Brisket Rub (to taste)
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup water


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pork Belly: Pat the pork belly dry with paper towels and cut it in half for more even cooking.
  2. Apply the Binder: Coat each piece of pork belly with Killer Hogs Hot Sauce and yellow mustard to help the seasoning stick.
  3. Season Generously: First, apply a good layer of Killer Hogs Hot Rub, then follow with a layer of Killer Hogs TX Rub for extra depth of flavor.
  4. Preheat the Smoker: Set up your smoker for indirect heat and bring the temperature to 275-300°F.
  5. Smoke the Pork Belly: Place the pork belly pieces on the smoker and cook for about 2 hours.
  6. Prepare the Spritz: Mix 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar and 1/4 cup water in a spray bottle.
  7. Spritz Regularly: After the first 30 minutes, begin spritzing the pork belly every 30 minutes to keep it moist and enhance the bark.
  8. Check the Internal Temperature: Continue smoking until the internal temperature reaches 202-208°F.
  9. Rest the Pork Belly: Remove the pork belly from the smoker and let it rest for at least 20-30 minutes. For even better results, rest it in a dry cooler for an hour.
  10. Slice and Serve: Slice the pork belly to your preferred thickness and enjoy!
