Pork Belly Burnt Ends

INGREDIENTS

  • 4-5 lb slab of fresh pork belly (skin removed)

  • 1/2 cup BBQ Dry Rub

  • 1/2 cup salted butter (cubed)

  • 1/2 cup honey

  • 1 cup BBQ sauce

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat your smoker to 250°F using fruitwood or pecan.

  2. Cut the pork belly into 1.5-inch cubes.

  3. Toss the cubes in a bowl with a light coating of binder (oil or mustard) and coat evenly with your dry rub.

  4. Place the cubes on a wire rack in the smoker for about 2.5 to 3 hours until the bark is deep mahogany.

  5. Place the cubes into a disposable aluminum pan.

  6. Add the cubed butter, honey, and BBQ sauce over the top, tossing gently to coat.

  7. Cover the pan with foil and return to the smoker for 1 to 1.5 hours until the meat is butter-tender.

  8. Remove the foil and cook for an additional 15 minutes to let the sauce glaze and tighten up.
