Method
Pork Belly Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Pork Belly
Start by preheating your oven to 300°F (150°C). Score the skin of the pork belly in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.
- 2
Season the Pork Belly
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and brown sugar. Rub this mixture all over the pork belly, ensuring it gets into the scored skin.

Roast the Pork Belly
Place the seasoned pork belly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, skin side up. Roast in the preheated oven for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender.
