Marinate the Pork
In a bowl, combine the miso paste, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well until smooth. Place the pork belly in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the pork. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Remove the pork belly from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later. Place the pork belly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, skin side up. Roast in the preheated oven for about 2.5 to 3 hours or until the pork is tender and the skin is crispy.
