    First attempt at Pork Belly Burnt Ends

    I didnt catch it. What temp did you do them at? I didn’t even have much fat drop from them to be honest. Certainly not a quart worth

    First attempt at Pork Belly Burnt Ends

    Honestly, after doing some looking into it, I think the texture I got is actually pretty ideal. I wouldn’t pan sear them though. Good luck with them though brother! Let me know how they come out for sure

    Thermometer Issues`

    Thermometer Issues`

    rjob, it's a TP17. It was only like $25 from amazon. When I get home later i will calibrate it and see where that puts me. Should there be a major difference in temperature from the rack the meat sits on to where the analog thermometer is on the lid?
