Directions

1. Prep the Pork Belly:

  • Pat the pork belly dry and poke holes all over the skin without piercing the meat.

  • Pat the skin dry again and wrap the pork belly in foil.
  • Brush white vinegar over the skin.
  • Place the pork belly in the roaster oven and slow roast for 4 hours.

4. Crisp the Skin:

  • Increase the oven temperature to 450°F.
  • Remove the pork from the foil and place it back in the oven, skin side up.
  • Roast for another hour.

5. Serve:
