i'm no pro at these but I would go 250 for a couple hours, then roll in your sauce and finish smoking them.

Im doing these today and smoked them almost 3 hrs @ 250 put them in a pan with brown sugar honey and butter covered and bumped the heat to 275 to render the fat about an hr and half glaze then uncovered 1/2 hr.

Did you smoke the belly whole, then cut it up before the rendering step, or cut it up beforehand?
