Planned to cook it like a brisket, but it took way longer than my calculations, at 4 hours it was at 160. So I cranked it up and it crisped up the fat so perfectly I’ll do it this way every time. I used a Carne Asada seasoning, and I’m looking forward to the next time I can cook it!

Cooked at 225 till 160.
Cranked to 375 till 200.

Forgive the captions on this pictures, I forgot to take regular pictures so I saved my Snaps.

Also, the amount of fat that rendered out almost filled my grease bucket! And it was still dripping with juiciness. Hard to dry out pork belly apparently.
