bacon burnt ends

Smoked Pork Belly Burnt Ends Recipe

pork belly,

extra virgin olive oil

dry rub, (see notes for our favorite)

unsalted butter

honey

Prepare Smoker

Preheat smoker to 225 – 250 degrees using fruit wood (we used cherry for color and sweeter flavor)

Trim, Cube, and Season

Trim excess skin and fat off the pork belly and slice into 2 inch cubes and place into a large bowl. Add olive oil and dry rub liberally and then place cubes onto a wire rack or directly on the smoker.

Smoke

Smoke uncovered for three hours. Look for a darker red color and a modest bark develop.

Sauce and Wrap

Remove the pork belly cubes from the smoker and place into a foil pan and then add your BBQ sauce, butter, and honey, and stir. Next cover the pan with aluminum foil and place back on the smoker.

Cook for an additional 90 minutes or until the internal temperature (IT) is roughly 200 – 203 degrees Fahrenheit.

Uncover

Remove the foil, close the lid to the smoker, and smoke for another 15 minutes to let the sauce thicken up.

Serve
