Pork Belly

Apple Sauce

Method

Pork Belly Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Belly

    Rinse the pork belly under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Pork Belly

    Rub the pork belly with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed on both sides.

  3. 3

    Sear the Pork Belly

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, place the pork belly skin-side down and sear for 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.

  4. 4

    Slow Cook the Pork Belly

    Transfer the seared pork belly to a slow cooker. Pour apple cider vinegar and chicken broth over the top. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until tender.

Apple Sauce Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook the Apples

    In a large pot, combine the chopped apples, sugar, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the apples are soft.

  2. 6

    Blend the Sauce

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in lemon juice. Use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Alternatively, transfer to a blender in batches.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Let the apple sauce cool slightly before serving it alongside the slow-cooked pork belly.
