How to
- Poke holes in the pork belly skin to allow for crispiness.
- Lay the pork, skin down, on a bed of salt. Weigh it down and refrigerate overnight to draw the moisture out of the skin.
- Remove the pork from the fridge and wipe it dry thoroughly with a paper towel, removing any salt left over.
- Apply a generous coating of barbecue sauce, followed by PitmasterX Tweety BBQ seasoning, fresh ginger, minced garlic, sliced spring onions, chili flakes, and soy sauce.
- Tie up the pork with butcher twine to ensure even cooking.
- Fire up the barbecue, setting it up with a rotisserie and backburner at about 160°C or 320°F.
- Place pork belly on the rotisserie skewer and let it cook until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender at a core temperature of about 65°C or 150°F.
- Once done, take it off the barbecue and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before slicing it up.
- If you want to even more flavor than make a sauce by frying 1 fine sliced spring onion, 1 tsp grate ginger, 1 tsp grated garlic, 1/2 tsp chili flakes in 2 tbsp sunflower oil.
- When the ingredients turned soft add 1/2 cup BBQ sauce and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
