## Description

Pork Belly Step 1

Review: Makes for Tasty Burnt Ends - Whole Foods has some good pork belly! I got several lbs at a great price delivered within a few hours and it was just as fresh as going to the butcher shop. The slab of meat was huge for what we paid and was thick too. We made pork belly burnt ends out of these and they were out of this world.
Review: I almost did not buy this... So happy I did!!!!! - I almost did not buy this due to the negative reviews. I had pondered the idea and gone back and forth over whether or not to experiment with pork belly. My inquisitive side won... I’m tired of Uber eats. I love Asian pork belly in Bao buns, but it is $5 a Bao bun at my favorite noodle house. There’s also the pandemic... so the family and I are all getting COVID cooking fatigue. Challenge Accepted!!! I ordered the pork belly through Wholefoods delivery on desertcart. This was one of the most BEAUTIFUL peices of pork that I have ever purchased. The fat and meat were nicely layered. The color and thickness of the pork belly were an amazing value for the money. I purchased 3.5 pounds for my family of four. I wish I purchased more. The husband said it was one of the best meals that he’s ever eaten in his life. I take that to heart as we have travelled quite a bit as a military family. I scored the bottom not the top to help the marinade soak into the meat better. I’ve had some awful pork belly in my life... tough, chewy, and too tangy. I marinated the pork belly in a vacuum sealed bag overnight. I used a mixture of fresh ginger, garlic, seasame seed oil, soy sauce, and Korean red chili paste. I found the recipe on FOOD NETWORK. The next day I roasted the pork belly in the oven low and slow for 3.5 hours at 325. I allowed the porkbelly to cool for one hour before slicing and pan searing. The results were beyond outstanding. The level of decadence is something that I did not know I could create as a home cook. I served it with Jasmine rice and a bag of steamed veggies. I made ginger pickles with carrots and celery. The entire meal was the stuff of a James Beard Awarded restaurant. I am completely astounded by the quality of the pork and the complexity of the flavor profile. I am forever changed...lol!!! If you are on the fence order this... talk to your delivery person, and tell them exactly what you want. I did!! And, it made all the difference! Happy Shopping, and safe health to everyone during this quarantine!!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The 1lb meat that i received was 96% pork fat and only4% meat? Is it supposed to be like t$hat?☹️**
A: No, that is way too much fat! They should have seen that when they cut the slab.

**Q: is this pork free range or at least pastor raise to get some sunlight or just a feed lot pigs??**
A: Look at the second picture .. do you see a green table? It tells you everything. The outdoor access starts at number 3 and the
pasture reised is number 4.
The higher the number the better animal treatment.
Apparently those poor animals don't see any sun.

**Q: I really want to make crispy pork roast with pork belly, is this cut "skin on"?**
A: Hi,  no this does not have the skin on.  I called and asked the meat manager…I wanted the skin on too.  The manager told me that it ships skin off. I went to my local H-Mart to get pork belly with skin.  The H-Mart had multiple varieties.  But… sorry Whole Foods is only skin off.

**Q: Is this skin or skinless? Seeing different answers here.**
A: I don’t think there is a single answer - I received one that was skinless one time, and the next time, one that had skin.  It seems to depend on what is in stock at the market. 😑😑😑

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great but some cuts can have a lot of fat content
*by O***A on December 17, 2024*

These pork belly cuts are not bad, just be aware that these look to be fresh cut and some of them can have a very high fat content, I had a piece that consisted of 50% fat. It's not bad if you want to use pork fat to render for other dishes. Otherwise this is was fine for the dish that I wanted to make, I would buy again.
