Method

  1. Preheat your offset smoker with charcoal briquettes, and heat until 120ºC. Soak your wood chips in water for at least a half-hour (we used hickory, but you can use cherry, mesquite, oak, pear, walnut or peach).
  2. Coat your 4cm pork belly cubes in the rub, making sure they all have a generous coating. Put them on a rack to make it easy to transfer on and off the smoker.
  3. Drain your wood chips and put them in the offset barrel on top of your smoking charcoal.
  4. Put your pork in the middle of the smoker and leave for 2 hours.
  5. Remove the rack from the smoker and put the meat into an aluminium pan, and cover with halftime glaze ingredients. Mix through.
  6. Check your charcoal and wood chips, replenish if necessary. Cover pan with foil and put back on your smoker for about 1.5 to 2 hours. When squished, the cubes should be very soft and juicy.
  7. Remove from smoker, drain off liquid.

Enjoy!
