Having been bought the best present ever, in June 2022 a Traeger Ironwood, so started the journey to learn proper BBQ and not just burn sausages 🤣
Almost 3 years later with a collection of different grills in my newly built shack ..I still burn sausages!
Cheers... Yes you can't eat many at one sitting (I've tried 🤣)

Whereabouts were you over here?

I'm UK based so it's pretty much a staple though these big pieces can be hard to come by. It really was crazily good, far exceeded my expectations or general BBQ skill 🤣

Next day I further reduced the sauce to a thick gravy consistency, adding Port as I went, then sliced the Pork belly and threw it onto our Blackstone griddle at high heat to char all round.
Absolutely delicious and need to make this again!!

before plunging the meat in and transfering it all to our Traeger ironwood for a 3 hour braise

While the meat cooled, I reduced and sieved the sauce, crushing the garlic into it.

I then wrapped the Pork Belly tightly in foil and placed in the fridge between two baking trays under a heavy weight

First up I boned and skinned the pork, then made a braising sauce with a mixture of red wine chicken stock smoked garlic and a whole bottle of Waz Sauce Hut Sweet Embers Cherry Cola Sauce brought to a simmer on our Kamado,

Sorry bit late but.. I would add some tallow at the wrap as well (normally trim quite a bit of hard fat from a rack of short ribs, stuck in foil next to the ribs on initial smoke provides enough to put a bit more juice in during the wrap)
