Ingredients
– Pork belly (you want a piece from the centre of the belly preferably)
– Salt, lots of salt…
– Any seasoning or rub your little heart desires for the flesh
Method
1. The day before, take the pork from the packet and dry it really well with a paper towel.
2. Score diamond patterns into the skin but make sure you don’t cut past the fat, you just want to cut through the skin.
3. Place your pork belly onto a wire rack and season it heavily on the skin side.
4. Place in the fridge overnight.
5. The next day, pre-heat your oven to 180°C.
6. Take the pork belly from the fridge and brush off any excess salt on the top.
7. Season the flesh side with any barbecue rub or cracked pepper.
8. Place into the oven for 1 hour. After 1 hour, turn the oven up to 220°C on the grill or broil function but make sure your pork is still in the bottom half section of the oven.
9. Cook it like this for another 30 minutes or until the skin goes super crispy. Just be super careful you don’t burn the crackling at this point as all ovens are different.
10. After a total of roughly 1.5 hours in the oven, your pork belly should be super crispy and still juicy in the centre. Remove from the oven and let it rest for at least 25 minutes before you slice it.
11. Enjoy!

Man dip that in some guacamole and it’s amaxing
Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Hey Andy how about some Carelian pies or some sauteed reindeer?
He is using Celsius guys and gals. Watch carefully it is displayed on the oven
Do they have a kid?
Where do you find those trays and those nice little grill things?
Important to get a belly with a thick layer of fat under the skin.
Mine's better.
THANK YOU CHEF
no vinegar?
180 celsius?
im danish its called “flæskesteg” and we dont put bbq seasoning soo this is half approved
What if deku had the gum gum fruit
What if deku was Ichigo
Really 180% dnt believe ot
Is this celsius or farenheit?
My family favorite also
Ali ovo stvorenje ukrštenih očiju. Baba jedna 😂😂😂😂
Celsius or fahrenheit?
Only tip I'd give is for the video itself. Just make sure to mention you're using celcius for temps. For other Americans that's 350f for 1hr then 430 broil temp while keeping an eye on it.
G'day Andy
What temp is the pork to be at after an hour at 180°C?
Thank you for your time
season just the skin or the whole thing ?
DNT CARE WHAT I FKN HEAR, THEY AINT TELLIN TRUTH, U PUT SHITLOAD OF SALT ON IT, NO MATTER WHAT ITS GOING TO BE SALTY, THAT BUDDY FKS THIS DISH UP. NO POINT EATING IT
Ong it looks amazing
Is one hour really enough ?! My recipe I’ve done is like 2 and a half, but it’s annoying because then I have to cut the crackle off and do the individually haha
What if I cut too deep? Pork will come too salty?
Yo, looks delicious I failed though 💔 maybe it was the ovens fault
That sounded like hygiene advice – "clean your under tray"! 😂
You're gonna hear it pop!! Don't not worry, that's just the skin getting crispy!!
Making this tomorrow! And now it's a day later and I made it and it came out perfect! Thank you!
Is the temp Celsius or Fahrenheit?
How’s the exaggeration trying to get the crunch sound
DONT DO THIS! You should either scrape the skin to clean in, or you should use a totally different appraoch, skipping the scraping, salting and fridging by instead flipping it over and boiling it in half an inch of water so that the skin gets clean then do the normal steps.
Never just unwrapp it and proceed like it is clean.
Watch it like whaaaat did you say just then?
Tip: If you want to avoid a smokey house & scrubbing the pan, add an inch of water to the bottom of the tray. It does not impact the crunch whatsoever. Thank me later 🎉
done, was good 😉
What oven mode?
so when you say 180 and 220 you mean C instead of F right
Celsius?
I've seen some recipes using vinegar on the skin to make it more crispy, have you ever tried this Andy? Are the results any different?
This looks very tasty so i am going to give this a try as well
220° but your oven says 210°?
Wow
I always screw up pork belly. Either the fat layer is too rubbery, or is scortched to earth core
How daya like ya goana.
