Candied Pork Belly Cubes
Candied Pork Belly Cubes are the perfect appetizer for your next game night, neighborhood get together, or tailgating party. Sweet, salty, and spicy, everyone will love these pork bites.
Slowly smoked over oak and cherry briquettes, the pork belly becomes amazingly tender. The cubes are then crisped slightly and tossed in a sugar-salt mixture.
Serve these bites with toothpicks so your fingers don’t get sticky. Make sure to make extra – they’ll go fast!
