- Cube the pork belly into 1″x1″ cubes. This works best if the pork belly is fresh from the fridge and firm.
- Season generously with your BBQ rub.
- Smoke the pork belly at 250 for 2.5 hours. Spritz with pineapple juice every 45 minutes or so.
- While the pork is smoking, add your butter, crushed pineapple, brown sugar, bourbon, and 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce to a sauce pan.
- Cook your sauce mixture over medium heat until it begins to thicken.
- Move your pork belly cubes into a cooking pan and cover with your sauce mixture.
- Cook for another 45 minutes or until internal temp reaches 200F.
- Serve as is, or with some additional BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
