Equipment

Ingredients

  • 500 g (1.1 lb) pork belly slices
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the BBQ sauce:

  • 4 tbsp tomato ketchup
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 1 tsp English mustard
  • 1 clove garlic crushed

To serve (optional):

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 4. Dry the pork belly slices with kitchen roll, then season with salt and pepper. Mix together the ingredients for the sauce and toss the slices in the sauce in a roasting tin. Cover tightly with foil and roast for 1 hour 30 minutes, until completely tender.
  • Remove the foil and turn the grill to its highest setting. Grill the meat for 3 to 4 minutes, turning it halfway and brushing over the sauce from the tin, until the sauce is thick and sticky and the slices are charred. Alternatively, put the braised slices on the barbecue and baste in the sauce from the roasting pan as they sizzle away. Serve in buns with some salad leaves and coleslaw, and any other side dishes you fancy.

Notes

  • Flavour variations:
    • Asian-inspired - use a hoisin-garlic glaze or Korean BBQ sauce with sesame seeds and spring onions
    • Sweet and spicy - add honey and sriracha to the BBQ sauce.
    • Smoky maple - stir in smoked paprika and maple syrup for a smoky-sweet finish.
    • Sticky bourbon - simmer the BBQ sauce with a splash of bourbon for a boozy upgrade!
  • This pork belly slices in BBQ sauce recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
