Tips

  • If you are not into sweets, cut back on blueberry jam.
  • The recipe is for 4 kilos of pork belly; if using 2 kilos, cut the measurements in half.
  • Combining sweet blueberry jam and spicy soy bean paste creates a very delicious flavor.
  • You can use any barbecue sauce, but hickory is preferred for its taste.
  • To give the skin color, baste the pork belly while it's simmering, making it appear as if it was oven-baked.
