Twice Cooked Sticky Pork Belly Recipe

This twice-cooked sticky pork belly recipe is a must-try! When it comes to pork belly, what’s not to love?! Pork belly has a delicious, rich and meaty flavour thanks to the layers of fat that surround the meat. Although it has become more fashionable over the past few years, pork belly is still an affordable cut. With some time and care you will be rewarded with tender meat and irresistible, crunchy outside bits – delicious! We enjoyed making this pork belly recipe in the test kitchen and we have made a lot of delicious pork dishes! Packed with a lot of flavour, this sticky pork is a great dish for entertaining or when you are looking to impress that someone special but it’s easy enough for a midweek meal as the slow cooker does a lot of the work. First, the pork belly is cooked low and slow until beautifully tender, then it is glazed and crisped up with a Chipotle honey made using our Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste mixed with good quality honey. It’s also very satisfying to use the delicious stock leftover from cooking the pork to make the accompanying rice super-tasty. Serve this sticky pork belly with rice cooked in the slow cooker stock and you’ve got yourself an awesome meal. If you like the sound of this sticky pork recipe, you should also check out our Pork Belly Tacos, crispy pork Carnitas or our Mexican Pulled Pork all of which we think are pretty irresistible pork dishes!
