Smoked Pork Belly - the most tender and juicy pork you will ever have! It is cooked low and slow on the smoker and seasoned with a delicious rub. Super easy, you will wonder why you have never tried it before!
Place pork belly on a large cutting board. Start at one end and make diagonal cuts every 2 inches thru the fat, just to the meat. Rotate the pork 90 degrees, and do the same thing the other direction. You end up with 2 inch diamonds cut into the fat.
