I had made some pork belly with this cherry miso glaze I hacked from an apple butter miso recipe. The pork belly was so good, I decided to use the left over glaze to make some chicken lollipops.

Good fortune that the local market has chicken legs for 55 cent, so $2 later I had a package of ten legs.

I frenched the legs and pulled all the tendons and pin bone (really labor intensive), wrapped in foil and covered in Jeff's rub. Plan to smoke these low and slow with cherry wood in the MES 30 and then finish off to 170f after dipping in the cherry glaze to carmelize the finish.

Will post a picture later of the finished product. This is tonight's dinner. [emoji]128512[/emoji]

Sounds good. Is the glaze from the Lehigh Valley Good Taste belly recipe?...JJ
 
Exactly! I am not that fluent yet with recipe sites. Here is the marinade recipe and I substituted cherry butter for the apple butter.

I had made a number of miso fish / pork dishes and love the flavor.

Apple butter miso glaze:
4 T white shiro miso paste
4 T sake
2 T granulated sugar
4 T liquid from pork belly pan
12 oz. jar spiced apple butter

Yep...That's the same recipe. It does sound like a winner!...JJ
