Picked up a 5 lb pork belly today, after going through the archives and reading some wonderful posts I wanted to try something different.

So I scored the skin, spiced the inside with Chinese 5 Spice and rolled into a log and secured it with speed wrap.

I seasoned the outside with Himalayan Pink Salt & fresh ground pepper corns.

Jed, if you click on the "image tags" tab on the right side of the Photobucket page, you can then copy the image code links and paste them right into your post here so we can see them.
 
Thanks I am trying to get the hang of this thang I am farkin dumb sometimes!
 
Still hanging out with my belly..out...side that is. She's at 180 and been moping it with Hoisin sauce, maple syrup, soy sauce mirin, and apple cider vinegar. Smells wicked good!
 
Why the speedwrap?

That looks like a great start.
 
Did you rub it with pink salt and whatnot, then put it on the smoker. Or did you cure it for a bit first?

Thanks, I just moved it to the oven and wrapped it. IT is at 188 and it's really soft inside. But I want to render more fat from it. Am I farking nuts?
 
Put another way, you are asking a Californian, of Japanese ancestry, who has studied BBQ and southern cuisine, who uses a platypus in a John Deere hat and overalls as an alter ego if you are nuts.
