Pork belly - first pellet smoker grill attempt

[FEENIX]

Used gochujang as binder; sweet and sassy BBQ dry rub, pink Himalayan salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Marinated overnight. Low and slow smoke with apple smoke pellets.

Smoking is still in progress ...

Probably a main dish, but see what else transpires when it is done.

Awesome, I love both spliced like brisket or cubed like burnt ends as an Appetizer.

We do them cubed like burnt ends as well. Good stuff.
Looks like your pit is doing some good work with the smoke. Should make an awesome meal!!!!

The rub mixture penetrated well, and the smoke was not overpowering. Very tasty. We dipped it in garlic, sriracha sauce, vinegar dipping sauce, and ponzu dipping sauce to reduce fattiness.

I finished at the air fryer to further reduce the fattiness and crisp the skin. Not bad overall for my first time going at it.

Try boiling them in water for 30min then cook as you did. Yes it's sacrilegious to boil them but it draws a lot of the grease out. Tabasco makes a sweet and spicy sauce that goes great with pork.

That's how I do it when I oven-bake or air fry. Similar to this ...
