Cooking pork belly is something that can seem intimidating for the average home cook. It’s a very fatty piece of meat, and if you don’t cook it correctly it can end up with a texture that can be everything from chewy to almost gooey.

The traditional way to cook pork belly is to roast it for a long time to render out most of the fat and crisp up the skin, but I prefer cooking my pork belly sous vide to guarantee that it's cooked exactly the way I want it.

To make the belly a little easier to share and to capitalize on grilling season right now, I like to slice up the belly into thick planks, skewer them with a simple BBQ glaze, and grill them until they are crispy around the edges!

This is a great appetizer to make when you want something simple and easy since most of the cooking can happen while you are asleep – yes, I cook these overnight!

Pork belly can be cooked sous vide at a range of cooking temperatures. If you want a more firm, steak-like texture to the pork belly, cook it at 158°F.

Personally, I like to I cook mine a little higher at 170°F, which renders out a bit more of the fat and gives you very tender, melt-in-your-mouth bites. There’s no hard and fast rule here, though!

Even after cooking, the pork belly will still have a lot of fat on it. Chill the pork belly fully (which makes it easier to slice), and then trim off any overhanging bits of fat and any parts where the belly is very thin. You want a rough rectangle of evenly thick pork belly.

You can use any leftover bits of cooked belly in your next batch of pasta carbonara or crisp them in a pan to serve with a salad!

One other note on trimming, which relates to the rind (or skin) on the pork belly. I always leave this on my pork belly. It helps hold the bites together and also gets crispy during grilling! It’s like a little

That said, if you don’t like the texture of the rind, you can trim it off, but just know that will make your bites very fragile and they might fall apart on the grill.

I found the right size for a good pork belly bite is about 1/2 inch thick and 1 1/2 inches long. That’s a big enough piece that it won’t just fall apart on the grill, but not so big that it becomes more than a bite.

These pork belly bites can take a lot of heat, but you don’t want to cook them for too long on the grill or they tend to fall apart.

On a gas grill cranked up to high heat, they will only need about 2 to 3 minutes per side to develop a good sear. If you are using charcoal, 1 to 2 minutes per side over direct heat will do the trick.

For those of you who may be wondering, sous vide means “under vacuum” and it just means sealing your food, getting out as much air as possible, and then cooking it in a water bath at a very specific temperature. This used to involve a lot of fancy equipment, but these days all you need is a Joule sous vide cooker and the rest can be done easily and economically!

I think sous vide cooking is something that all home cooks should learn to do because it takes a lot of the stress out of cooking. You can prep your food in advance in the bags and then cook it when you have time.

You also don’t have to monitor the food while it cooks because it’s in a very controlled environment (similar to cooking in a pressure cooker or a slow cooker) and the results will be the same every time! After all, restaurant chefs use sous vide in order to efficiently reproduce identical meals for all their customers, and you can use it at home for the same reason!

Grilled chicken is one of my go-to summer grilling recipes, but even so, I often struggle with making sure the chicken is cooked to a safe temperature without completely charring the outside.

Korean Fried Chicken Recipe

This recipe starts by covering the chicken in a homemade Korean-style BBQ sauce and then cooking it at a safe 158°F for three hours (you could also cook for up to five hours without any issues with the ). This is plenty of time to take your kids to soccer practice, run some errands, or relax with a book on the couch!

Then you finish the chicken on a hot grill while basting it in more sauce. The results are perfect Korean BBQ chicken. Every. Time.

The FDA recommends that you cook chicken to 165°F, but you can also safely cook chicken at a lower temperature as long as you cook it for long enough. I chose 158°F for this recipe because I think this temperature gives the chicken a fantastic firm but tender texture.

Korean Beef Short Ribs (sous Vide)

You can actually sous vide this chicken as low as 150°F and it will still be safely cooked. However, I find that at this temperature the chicken is almost too juicy and has an almost raw texture to it. No good for me. If you go too much higher you run the risk of overcooking the chicken once you finish it on the grill.

It's important that the chicken be well-sealed with as much air as possible removed from the bag. Unless you happen to have a vacuum sealer at home, you’ll have to call it close enough by using the water displacement method for removing air from the bags.

First, make sure your chicken is in one layer within the bag. It's fine if they touch, but try not to overlap the pieces or have two pieces stacked on top of each other. Press out as much air as you can with your hands, and then partially seal the bag at the top so that air can still escape.

Then slowly submerge the bag into a pot of water, holding it by the seal at the top of the bag. The pressure of the water will force the air out of the bag, and then once you've submerged the bag up to the top, finish sealing the bag the rest of the way.

If you’ve ever considered diving into the world of sous vide, this recipe is a great place to start. The results are fantastic, either for a simple weeknight dinner or great for a casual backyard BBQ party.
