Smoked pork belly burnt ends are a crowd favorite. We have the most tender, flavorful and mouthwatering BBQ pork burnt ends recipe right here.

Ingredients

  • 1 5-7 lb boneless, skinless pork belly slab ((we find ours at Costco))
  • 1/2 cup Dry rib rub seasoning (, use your favorite (more or less to taste))
  • 1/2 cup Honey
  • 1 1/2 cup BBQ Sauce

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat smoker to 250°F.

  2. 2

    Cut pork belly into 1 1/2-inch cubes and place into large mixing bowl. Sprinkle dry rub over the pork belly cubes and toss to coat.

  3. 3

    Place cubes fat side up directly on the grill grates.* (see note below) Close the lid and smoke 2 to 3 hours, or until they reach 190°F internal temperature.

  4. 4

    Remove pork bites from smoker and place in deep 9x13-inch aluminum pan. Add barbecue sauce and honey. Mix until evenly coated. Add additional rib rub, if desired.

  5. 5

    Place pan onto grill, close lid, up the temp to 275°F and smoke an additional 45 minutes to 1 hour, until liquid is thickened and caramelized.

  6. 6

    Remove pan from smoker. Let rest 15 minutes before serving. (We like to set them out as a party app with toothpicks.)
