3 The Cook

  • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

  • Place your seasoned pork belly skin side down over the cooler side of the grate and close the grill lid. Cook your pork belly for 5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 200–205°F.

  • Remove your pork belly from the grill and place it on a cutting board to rest for 3 minutes. Slice off the skin and cut into 3-inch squares. Serve and enjoy!
