Roughly cut sticky pork belly bites with blistered edges on a seasoned tray — **TooGut pick**Flexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

A two-stage cook gives pork belly both tenderness and char. Roast the hand-cut pieces until their fat starts to render, then glaze and move them over the barbecue just long enough to create dark, chewy corners.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Start in the oven

Heat the oven to 190°C. Season pork with salt and spread on a rack over a lined tray, leaving natural gaps.

Render slowly

Roast for 45 minutes, turning once, until tender and browned at the thinner edges.

Reduce the glaze

Simmer tamari, maple, ginger, vinegar and chilli for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly syrupy.

Finish over flame

Toss pork with two-thirds of the glaze. Barbecue over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes, turning each piece as it blisters.

Glaze once more

Pile onto a dark platter and spoon over the remaining glaze. Rest for 5 minutes before eating.
