Very nice of you to say about the spinner. It was a pretty belly and the sound of the knife chopping through the crackle. music to my ears.

David that is a masterpiece on a plate!!!! Just perfection start to finish…..oh that peanut butter bread looks cazy good!!!

Thanks Civil for the Love and the comment

Very nice of you to say, the meal was great and I could not stop eating the belly as I was cutting it , but I was getting some pretty dirt darting looks at the table lol.

As for the peanut Butter bread , it looked good and smelt good . Tasted just like a PB cookie. But like I told john fxsales1959 , not everything I do works out right or the way I want it to .
This had a bad raw section in the very center that my probe and tooth pick did not catch.

Oh well next time longer skewer to test.

Sorry also meant to say , I cant wait to try the smoked salt that I had on top of the bellies in the smoker.



I saved it in a bottle , and it crumbled right back to reg salt shape.

Will see.

Yes the belly was very nice , and the SD sub buns worked out good also. I might also make them a little thinner net time for this kind of sandwich. But the same size for sliced meat kind of sub sandwich. These ones were 190 grams of dough each.

As for the length of my posts. I know they are long and sometimes I go on and on and on ... you get it . LOL
But I have read some other post by folks ( and I love everyones posts for the read and the how they do in case I want to do it also , or steal how they did theirs ) that say here is my post to the point not dragged on with all the how to pictures .

So sometimes I wonder if I add too much. And yes I take lots of pictures when I can , even if it is just for myself.

Sorry there I go again lol

WOW David that looks awesome!
I've seen the crispy skin vids and your pics and description are right there with the best of them!
I have one in the freezer and plan to try that next time the daughter and her family come home. Hope it turns out like yours!
The pico and bread also look great!

That is very nice of you to say. And the most important thing to remember is to dry the shin very well and have it turn back to a pink from white colour.
And not let it get wet at all during and after the cook. Even when you slice it try not to let the crackled skin touch or lay in it juices as it will soften back up. That is also why I broiled it ( BBQ ) on an angle so the juice from the flesh and fat did not puddle on the skin.

Yes loved the bread and the Pico which I use fresh lime juice in it .

I am sure yours will turn out great and your daughter will love it.

Looks like a fantastic samich!

Crispy, bubbly skin is a tough one to execute that's for sure. I tend to do them in the oven fairly low and slow to cook through, then finish it under the broiler since you need a good blast of heat to really get the bubbles popping.

Maybe one day I'll try a deep fryer to really up my crispy pork belly skin game like they do in Thailand

 

[philpom]

I must say, "that looks like a killer sameich". I'm more than willing to try one, just let me know!

How did the salt turn out? I imagine it's good since the temp for smoking salt isn't very important but it probably should be refrigerated since it's gotta have some belly fat/juice in it.

Nice work, looks delicious!

That is simply outstanding. Bravo. I love me some pork belly.
