I've never had porkbelly at all. Something to put on the To-Do list.
I'm definitely not going to serve it tonight. I'm almost at 12 hours and 180/174 degrees. My first thought, is to vacuum seal into a few bags, refrigerate, and then reheat tomorrow (I think I have a chart for reheat time)...
I don't really have much advice to offer as I have never made burntends from this cut. When I do make them from porkbelly or chuck, I usually cube the meat into inch to inch and a half cubes before smoking. When the cubes hit around 160°, I put them in a foil pan with sauce, covered with foil...
Cured the belly’s for almost 2 weeks and got them on sale for about 2.30 a pound. Have a cart for the slicer that I’m building now and almost done, pork loin and turkey breast also, porkbellyburntends and 100% beef brisket sausage I make couple days ago
Mayve cook to finish temp and cool, then cube and do porkbellyburntends with it. It's fatty enough it shouldn't dry out when you toss it with the butter and sugar and BBQ sauce to reheat. You could also cube it , thread onto kabobs, sear on a hot grill and glaze at the end.
This week, they have them on sale for $2.99/lb. around me and market them as PorkBelly For BurntEnds. They run these on sale about once every 2 months, they are thin and small...about an inch thick and weigh about 2-3 lbs. I'm guessing they are a whole belly that's been cut into thirds and...
My daughter was home from college for the weekend; I asked what she wanted me to cook for her friends on Saturday night. Her answer was quick and direct.
Third pic: I run a Kamado Joe Big Joe, but sometimes, a double-decker is what it takes to fit it all in.
I’m a massive fan of Big Wick’s...
I make bacon from full skin-on pork bellies. Part of the fun after curing and smoking is squaring up the bellies to slice bacon. I usually trim about 3" to square all the way across. All that cut gets cut into little cubes like making burntends. The all go in a suck bag and frozen.. fry up a...
I ran into Albertsons yesterday morning to grab some allergy meds and stumbled upon this skin on porkbelly. I've watched a ton of crispy porkbelly videos and figured I'd give it a shot.
Heath Riles Garlic Jalapeno and Killer Hogs Hot BBQ for the meat side.
I don't own a Jaccard, so I just...
I've been following this link,
https://www.smoking-meat.com/smoked-chuck-roast-burnt-ends
, where Jeff uses a chuck roast (my mistake in getting a bottom round). He cooks it as a roast at 240˚F, until 190˚F (roughly 8 hours) and then cuts, adds sauce/rub, and then cools some more (up to 2 hours)...
That is absolutely stunning ! I am amazed at it all. The color, bark, everything appears spot on. I am also sure it didn't take long to disappear at the table. Congrats on making the carousel.

I think I agree, but to be honest, I’ve never smoked a fresh porkbelly. Of course I’ve always made bacon and I’ve smoked whole bacon slabs for pulled bacon, which is crazy delicious, but I’ve never done a belly fresh. I’m going to just let it roll whole. No burntends, to sweet for me, and enjoy.
I had a porkbelly that needed to be used. I was having trouble coordinating a time to cure it for bacon. With unseasonable warm temps burntends sounded good and they definitely were!
Cut the side into chunks and seasoned them with Blues Hogs original dry rub and let them smoke and after the...
