Hello just watched it will be doing it looks amazing,just wondering could I use a can of apple cider instead of apple vinegar, Thanks Neil 👍

[@LownSlowBasics]

You've gotta untie the first few loops and should be good to go!

[@herewiniwalker970]

That blew my mind!!

I'd just like to say thank you. I'm from South Africa. I'm not new to making porkbelly. But we usually got our crackling via a different method. I used this recipe today, and due to bad timing, couldn't do the total overnight salt and moisture removal. It was. Defrosted yesterday, removed from packaging and I only started to remove moisture via drying and salt at about 11 am. I used your method, I dried, put salt in a boat, about 2 hours later, removed the salt and excess moisture, repeated process left in refrigerator. Did this 2ce. I put it on at about 3:30 pm. Crackling is proper crisp. Meat is tender, used chicken stock mixed with boiling water. Turned out excellent. Succulent meat, proper crisp. Highly recommend. You truely are a master at your craft, will try smoking next. 10/10, highly recommend. Just did a spicy Asian shiraccha dipping sauce for effect. Try that, really works well. But as a base, thank you for the process. And it also proves, you don't have to do it overnight. But I can get better air crackle, salting 2 days prior. Thumbs up from ZA

[@deanboak4143]

Love your work mate. I have a crap memory so I need to re-watch your vids every 2nd time I cook!

[@MonsieurCrezzy]

Wow. Cooked this last night and was THE BEST PORK I’VE EVER EATEN. I was worried about using so much Apple cider vinegar and going as high as 85deg but it the belly was so juicy and the crackling so CRACKLED! 😋

[@TheMasterMoto]

2:40, Thr bag trick blew my mind on the “Correct” method of opening … Genius right there. That crackle looks amazing

[@LownSlowBasics]

Lol cheers mate

[@Knappovision]

Finally cooked my first belly tonight and followed your tips. Absolutely nailed it. Thanks mate. 🤘

[@jasonkeaton1592]

Did one last weekend and it was so awesome I'm doing in again today. Even my wife who hasnt had a pork belly she liked asked for it again this weekend after trying it last weekend.

[@blueenglishstaffybreeder6956]

That’s probably the first vid that I’ve copied exactly to the letter that works, others make it too complicated, thank you I learnt something today

[@LownSlowBasics]

You are more than welcome! Thanks for the feedback.

[@stephencummins7589]

You got your expert gourmet taster, he sure appreciate your cooking.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Lol he’s not too fussy either.

[@JohleneBlignaut]

Looks and sound amazing. Thank you for sharing.

[@tongatours]

That looks amazing. I love how crispy that is and tender at the same time. I'm going to do the same thing on my kettle but with firewood and rocks and hopefully it'll get the same results as this video. Thank for the great video. Cheers from The Kingdom of Tonga

[@geobucky]

Used this method yesterday to make pork belly for the first time on the weber and daaaaaaaamn it was so good.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Hell yes! That’s awesome!

[@RXT35Y]

Considering my wife doesn’t like pork and said she would try this. I think it going to be a winner 👌👌

[@LownSlowBasics]

Now that's a big statement! Give it a shot whilst you can ;)

[@phillipouzounis7390]

This is the best video, this will be my second time cooking a pork belly following this method 😋

[@mattro4902]

I've actually never seen this technique. I believe I may give it a try this weekend . Thanks for sharing!

[@SteveBarics]

loved the video. How many briquettes per side

[@theidlebutcher9]

I have always struggled with my pork belly and getting the crackling crispy constantly across the entire cut, but this has helped tremendously. Thank you excellent video and works not everytime.

[@grayadam1987]

Just did this. Salt trick is a game changer. Got my butcher to leave the rib in to create the domed apple effect. Worked a treat.

[@LownSlowBasics]

That’s awesome mate!

[@euanwhite8284]

Mate, this was an absolute winner! Thanks for your video and tips…was the best pork I’ve ever done..cheers from NZ.

That looks amazing. Loving this channel. So good to watch an Australian doing these videos. Nothing against the yanks but get a bit sick of their material. Just got myself a Webber and its seriously the best BBQ I've had. Keep up the good work.

[@NoLeftTurn54321]

Thanks for the tips. The longer you can leave it in the fridge to dry out the better. Moisture is crispy crackling's enemy 👍

[@reefjames6302]

Thanks for the tips mate! This will be next weekends BBQ! I tell ya what, we got the same house bricks and Webber hahahahaha, was weirdly familiar watching this video.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Haha no worries mate. That’s a bit freaky 👻

[@AndreVanKets]

Hey there, thanks for the great video. Question: in the video you said you waited 45 minutes after adding the Apple cider vinegar. Is that an additional 45 minutes, or just the ~15 minutes to get the total time to 45 minutes?

[@rossmcbride4604]

I’ve got a Webber family Q I use for everything. Do you have any tips or is it much the same technique? I’m starting to drool.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Hey mate much the same, just put on a rack inside a roasting pan to stop the direct heat.

[@egibson2266]

Can you slice the skin instead of pierce?

[@LownSlowBasics]

you sure can.

[@rossquinn7785]

Another great video mate, this method works a treat. What brand chimney do you use ? I like the idea for a greater diameter than usual, surely this will help getting the beads more evenly lit rather than the bottom ones being totally torched in the narrower style chimneys ???

[@TheDJCUBAN]

Been waiting for this video, that looks sensational bro!!

Hi! Salt or other seasoning on meat side is not needed?

This looks amazing but will it work as well in a Weber Q2 as I dont have a weber kettle bbq as such.

Hi mate, great video thanks. Going to give this a try tomorrow. Did you have both vents open fully the entire time?

[@LownSlowBasics]

Sure did :)

[@chrisshieff]

@@LownSlowBasics Thank you!

[@thegaminggooner3519]

Hi Low n Slow Basics Great job on the meat. Just a little tip when filming. Most cameras have a minimum focus distance this is what is causing your blurry camera work. Rather than moving your meat closer to the camera take a second and use the zoom on the lens and this will allow you to get the close up you want along with the crispy footage we crave. Great work and keep uploading more kettle bbq tutorials!

[@LownSlowBasics]

thanks so much, i'm still learning so much about cameras. I only film with a GoPro and need to invest in a new camera in the near future i think!

[@thegaminggooner3519]

No worries mate - doesn't need to be super expensive! If you're interested in some advice feel free to send me a message - I recommend the Canon Eos m50 for a beginner film maker :)
