Anybody make Pork Belly Chili?
« Reply #-1 on: November 24, 2018, 01:23:41 PM »
A local bar and grill chili competition is in a couple weeks and I am looking to make something a little different.  Anybody have experience with pork belly chili?

I have never had it, but my gut tells me to temper the belly with some slightly leaner pork.

I'd tend to agree with Billy.  Perhaps some belly to render into lardons and saute onions and whatnot in the rendered fat.  If it's a 1:1:1 mix of ground beef, ground pork, and the belly lardons I think it's be pretty on point.

No, but I'd sure love to be there to try yours, especially with some of the suggextions mentioned! It sounds like it'd be really good.

I agree with the suggestions.  I was worried the fat content of the pork belly would be too much and the comments confirm.  I'll make some adjustments and report back.
