Re: Pork belly
I may be alone here, but I prefer grilling/smoking in the winter and our winters are pretty unforgiving.
Seems like low temps are easier to control when I smoke, almost as if the hot temps and Sun help the temps creep up.
So to answer your question, I grab a hat, jacket, hot coffee ( or cold beer :) :) :) ) and smoke the neighbors out like a bug bomb lol..

Re: Pork belly
I haven't smoked a pork belly yet. I have always cured and smoked for bacon. CF
OK, get over it, you lost. God bless America

Re: Pork belly
If I had to guess, the pic above was probably a ( roasted ) pork belly.
The link you looked at was my first pork belly attempt from me roasting a pork belly.
Although it's not the same as this pic, it's not really far off. I think mine was sitting in more stock therefore not as crispy as your pic. It was extremely moist, but lacked the crispness in your pic and that was what I was shooting for.

I'm doing it this weekend, my wife's and our family friend of 30 years coming to dinner at our place for her birthday. All our kids grew up playing sport together.

Re: Pork belly
Here's some pork belly I did today. Stuffed the belly with masa, fresh roasted Hatch green chiles, and cheese. Smoked it to 175 degrees.

Re: Pork belly
Looks outstanding.
Question - what did the Masa do for the dish?

It helped to keep the cheese and green chiles from running out, and help give that green chile and cheese tamale taste.
