Pork belly(not bacon style)

[Wolgast]

This pork was from our local butcher.
I love bacon dont get me wrong but the meat is nice to eat in layers 2.(skip the big fat layers inside the meat and just have sum nice tender meat)

Maby just me being picky.

That aside lets start the cook:

Smoker:WSM 22" (first try)

weight:belly at around 1 kg

Rub:Black pepper/salt and minced garlic(keep it simple)

Sauce:none

Wood:Apple 5 chunks

Fire: 2.5kg brickettes "swedish mark"
started with 15 lit ones MM.(to low for this size of smoker will go 30 next time took 45 min to get up to smoke temp)steady after that.

Time: 5.5 hours at 118-125 temp (240-260f)
Meat temp 90c

Resting(foil) time: as we speak 30 min(hungry as **** Wink )

Very nice. Roasted belly is a favorite of mine. I don't do it often - hard to find people that don't have a claimed aversion to fat. (Yet they'll eat bacon. Go figure.)
