Pork Belly

Toasted Sesame

Method

Pork Belly Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Pork Belly

    Rub the pork belly with salt and black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Grill the Pork Belly

    Place the pork belly on the grill, skin side down, and cook for about 15-20 minutes, then flip and cook for another 15-20 minutes until nicely charred and cooked through.

  2. 4

    Apply Ssamjang Glaze

    During the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the ssamjang glaze on the pork belly generously, allowing it to caramelize slightly.

Finishing Touches

  1. 5

    Toast Sesame Seeds

    In a small pan, toast sesame seeds over medium heat until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Remove the pork belly from the grill, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
