The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Darryl Rubb, The Rub Smuggler

This is where the serious cooks sit. Six or seven pieces, a limited drop and a condiment you'll hide from the household. Think Meat Church The Gospel on pork belly burnt ends, finished with BLEND Blazed Smoked Chilli Honey and a spoon of Proud Phoenix Honey Chilli Crisp on the side. Enough range to cook a month without repeating a plate.

🏴‍☠️ Darryl's Secret: Quartermaster's Hot-Honey Belly Bites

Pork belly burnt ends built around the crate's guarded condiment.

You'll need: 1.5kg skinless pork belly, cut into 4cm cubes; 3 tbsp of the crate's all-purpose rub; 3 tbsp of the crate's hot honey or chilli oil; 60g butter, cubed; ¼ cup of the crate's BBQ sauce.

Do this:

  1. Toss the cubes in rub and smoke on a rack at 120°C for about 2½–3 hours until they're deep mahogany.
  2. Tip into a foil tray with the butter, hot honey and sauce, toss to coat, and cover with foil.
  3. Cook covered another 60–90 minutes until a probe slides in with no fight, around 93–95°C.
  4. Uncover for 10–15 minutes so the sauce tightens, then rest 10 minutes before the crowd gets at them.
