hasn't been this price for a long long time. Also just yesterday I purchased some pork belly at Costco for ~$20

For those wanting to make crispy pork belly in the oven, I use a combination of the methods described in these two videos

1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKeztAkKw2Y
2. https://youtu.be/NMORs2KR1zE?t=390

  1. season meaty part with 5 spice, salt and pepper, wrap bottom part in foil, dry skin in fridge for ~4 days or until it hardens as described in video 1
  2. Then oven time and temp as per video 2
  3. 5-10 minutes using the grill function monitoring closely

        I prefer pork loin. Cooked in a bath for 15 hours with herbs. Then sliced on rye bread.

          I don't usually spend that long in the bath. Should I just leave the plug (and pork) in when I get out?

          @noskich That is fantastic -253!! Best score ever :) I would be proud of that. It shows you are free of the brain washing that has somehow happened to a large percentage of our population and they have forgotten how to take a joke. It is like that movie, Invasion of the Body snatchers, has become reality. Maybe aliens are really here and this is how they enslave humans.

      No, please elaborate. Why the hell do you get to "shame" other people for their choice of food.

      Why is your beliefs system or religion somehow better or more correct than someone elses?

      What the hell even is an "inclusive" food?

      Actually have the courage to stand by your insane statement and logically explain why you're not being a bigot yourself in telling other people what they can or cannot say/do.

    Other way can be.

    Put it on cooling rack or something.
    Pour boiling water on top.

    Pat dry. Leave in the fridge over night.

    Next day.
    Season it, Salt and oil on skin side. blast the oven at the highest temp or around 220 degrees. Cook it until skin is crispy. Should happen within an hour.
    After skin is crispy, turn down the temp to 160 170 and keep cooking for another an hour or so.

    All depends on the size of the Pork belly though

    • nightelves on 13/08/2023 - 23:15

      Can you use air fryer to speed up the cooking?

      • fantoo on 14/08/2023 - 00:34

        AF also great for re-heating them. Turn into pork belly 'bites' and away you go with a little extra salt on them.

        IMO this is the best way. David Ong (from the first video) has a great method. He's a BBQ master guy, but would basically now say you can't beat the airfryer.
        Basically, the secret is just to leave opened in your fridge for 2-3 days to dry out the skin

      You could possibly ask for a rain check. I have never done it for a product like meat though. I can only hope that they just generically say that you get to buy a pork belly for $12 per kg.

      • Poor Ass on 15/08/2023 - 10:24

        • JayParker on 21/08/2023 - 14:58

          Woolworths stopped early Covid era.

          Coles still do selective rainchecks, I think the item must be advertised in the catalogue.

          • Poor Ass on 21/08/2023 - 16:00

              @Poor Ass: I once returned an expired whole chicken to Woolies a week after I had purchased it. The receipt showed the date of purchase and the date on the chicken showed it had expired the day before. The girl wanted to know why I had not returned it on the day of purchase. I told her I did not have 20 minutes to travel to the store each way with 2 kids to remedy their mistake. Anyway got my money back as you should have. Luckily the chicken was well sealed. Pretty sure against the law for them to sell expired food. Just needed to say you would report them.

                @Yola: ya that's good

                sometimes you buy meat and even not expired it already gone off when you open it and it's nothing to do with how you store it just sometimes there's a bad batch…. i mean they can't really question this stuff and just need to accept it

                imaging it was gone and you cooked it and then smelled awful…. you would need to bring the cooked meat back in the store if you want that refund

            • JayParker on 21/08/2023 - 21:19
