INGREDIENTS:

2kg Pork Belly

 

Pork Rub:

2 tbsp salt

2 tbsp paprika

4 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp mustard powder

2 tsp black pepper

 

IN THE KITCHEN:

1. Score the fat of the pork belly with a sharp knife in a diamond pattern, keeping the cuts quite close together.

2. Place the pork belly, skin side down, on a cutting board and distribute the pork rub onto the meat, leaving the skin free from the rub.

3. Turn the pork belly and rub the skin with a generous amount of salt, this will help form a good crackling.

 

AT THE BARBECUE:

1. Prepare the barbecue for indirect heat, approx. 250°C. If using a 57cm charcoal barbecue, you will need ½-chimney starter of lit Weber briquettes.

2. Place the pork roast over indirect heat and let it roast for approx. 30 minutes.

3. Turn down the temperature to approx. 180°C and continue to roast the meat for another 30 minutes, or until the core temperature reaches 68- 70°C.

4. Take the pork belly off the barbecue and let it rest for 10 minutes before cutting it.
