[@beka4780]

I have Never seen such a successful method, who is easy and fast! I will try it! Thanks Aaron 👍, greetings Bernd

[@jacobpaniagua9691]

Thanks. You made it look so simple, Im going to store now to buy a small pork belly and use your directions for cooking it.

[@frankeeshackcloth1017]

Pulling a pork belly out the freezer for the weekend, definitely trying this method 👌

[@TheJuanobando]

Best recipe ever. Light years. Changed my life. Thanks!

[@beka4780]

Hey Aaron! I have tried your method with a Pork Loin today at 200 Celsius in grill and I put it out when the internal temperature was 68 Celsius! What Can I tell you now?? Easy: IT WAS PERFECT! So crunchy, so juicy and so easy to make! In Future I only use this method! You are the Best Aaron! Thank you so much👍👍👍 Greetings Bernd

Love your videos mate have helped me out heaps! Can you do a full family roast vid with veggies and all?

[@LownSlowBasics]

I’ll see what I can do 🤘

[@Vivalasandy]

That would be awesome!

[@victorbitter583]

Looked awesome Aaron. I will try this method soon. I bought a 1.5kg chunk of A5 scotch fillet last week I used the Dalstrong to cut it into 3 steaks. They were perfectly parallel and it went through so easy. I could never cut steaks like that with the ole filleting knife lol. thanks a million brother. cheers.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Most welcome mate! 🙏

[@ashleymeddings2317]

Thanks Man love your work I've tried a few of your methods now and I haven't gone wrong. also like the Apron where can i get one?

[@xantiaexclusive]

Loving your channel, as I use a kamado, I’m wondering whether it’d be best to cook pork belly skin side down for the first part of the cook to take the heat rising via the deflector then flip it over and place in a tray etc.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Hey mate. If you are using a kamado, no need. They are awesome for pork belly as they hold so much heat and can get nice n hot.

[@xantiaexclusive]

Great vid thanks , what is your charcoal chimney , I’ve seen it in a few of your videos , I need a new one , cheers

[@bullywag]

Nice one. Any chance of doing another brisket point vid? I have been smoking a few but never seem to get the bark right. It either has bark and is on the dry side, or no bark but nice and juicy.

[@LownSlowBasics]

I’ll see what I can do mate

[@masondegaulle5731]

You give it a good spritz now and then to keep it moist? Spritzing helps the surface fats to emulsify and 'cook off' to give a nice rich dark bark. Do you run a waterpan? Both those will help a lot to keep it from drying out and promote a good rich bark. Don't overdo the rub either, that can mess it up, and be careful with your heat, nice and slow. Give it plenty of time between spritzes to give the fats time to cook off, then spritz to moisturise and draw more fatty goodness bubbling to the surface.

[@bullywag]

@@masondegaulle5731 thanks for the advice. I don't use a waterpan but do spritz. I'll give that a shot.

[@cliffordputnam4197]

When you put the pork in at the beginning, do you leave the bottom air vent open or closed?

[@LownSlowBasics]

Open

[@markhiggins3054]

I’m getting started in kettle cooking. I do heaps of charcoal spits and bbq with my g-spit. Wondering on your preference - Weber, slow and sear or the Oklahoma joe. Looking to do some smoking as well. Also what accessories would you recommend. Many thanks mark

[@LownSlowBasics]

Hey mate. I’d start with a Weber. Check our Weber accessories video out.

[@markhiggins3054]

@@LownSlowBasics why?

[@jonskytta]

I think I might have missed it but at what temp are you running the grill on? How long was the cooking? Just wondering as I have a 2,1 kg I am going to be trying on the grill…

[@shanejorgensen5507]

do you leave the temp up the whole time or after the pork crackle is done do you let the temp drop a bit?

[@LownSlowBasics]

It naturally drops a touch after a while but high all the way is fine

[@gregduncan342]

Awesome man. Given how good these results are, why would you take the 2 day approach? PS. I ordered the needle thing and your rubs. Can’t wait to try them!!

[@LownSlowBasics]

It’s just all down to personal preference 🙏

[@ssusggus]

Any tips for stabbing the fat without the ccfoud

[@LownSlowBasics]

Corn cob holder, knife tip, anything clean and sharp.

[@ssusggus]

@@LownSlowBasics ended up using a fork! Came out great, thankyou. Everything I have cooked from your channel on my Webber kettle has been 10/10. Gonna try beef ribs next 👍🏻

[@kenli6485]

I have a Oklahoma Joe's drum smoker, How can I do the same thing? Thank you

[@joeparas]

I cooked a pork loin in a similar way the other week, in a similar amount of time (dried out for 2 days for crackling though). The crackling was perfect, but the fat was like rubber and made it inedible. The recipe said to cook it until 62 internal. Reckon if I'd cooked it until 92 the fat would have all rendered?

[@LownSlowBasics]

The meat on a pork loin will dry out cooking to 92. It may have just been a quality issue with that bit of pork?

[@joeparas]

@@LownSlowBasics just a cut i bought at Coles on a whim. He meat and skin were great, just the layer of fat under the skin was too rubbery

[@jyeatkinson4789]

Thanks for the video! I picked up a pork belly yesterday to try out your other method for the Weber kettle. But this video just popped up so I might try this one instead. A question... Will I get better crackling if I leave the pork belly in the fridge uncovered for a day or 2 or is there no need when using this method?

[@LownSlowBasics]

Honestly no need but as always it comes down to personal preference

[@djwylde1]

Is the goal to try and keep that temp around 500 the whole cook?

[@Aussievanlife]

Whats the temp probe your using mate

A bit off topic, I always follow your method when smoking brisket in my Weber kettle but when I wrap it, I wrap it with a heap of sliced mushrooms, then once it’s done I use the mushrooms and some of the meat juice to make a gravy ….it’s divine!!!!

@@LownSlowBasics Had to improvise because the missus' mother "borrowed" her hairdryer a couple years ago and she's never bothered to get another, used the grill to try and dry it, tried to keep the temp down but might have got just a little too hot. Still turned out amazing but the cracking was only 50/50 between hard crunch and soft crunch. Didn't want to use a heat gun because they throw a fair bit of carbon dust, guess I'll have to buy myself a hair dryer and go again! Used apple and a bit of mesquite in the smoke, beautiful flavours, super juicy. 👌
