Pork belly on the MAK...with PICS
« Reply #-1 on: April 03, 2018, 04:59:16 PM »
Ok, so I promised I'd so up with some pics and here they are. First, this is a skinless pork belly from Sam's with Simply Marvelous pecan rub on the MAK at 235 with A-Maze-N pecan pellets. Took it to about 198-200 then gently took it into the house to cool for slicing.

Well, today I wanted a burger, so I cranked up the blackstone and made an Oklahoma onion burger with smoked pork belly slices and a fried egg. I used Oakridge BBQ santa maria on the burger. I later added a slice of tomato to cut the richness and it was awesome.

I would have demolished those two burgers and then sat back in my chair, smiled and wait a few and then ask for a third   :)

A "Food Porn" warning in the title might have been nice!  I mean you've got egg yolk running down the side and everything!   :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks for all the kind replies!!!

I've run into what I expected with the pellet grill and that is that my favorite pellets(A-Maze-N) make quite a difference in the food cooked. I use pitmasters choice, pecan and apple for different meats.


Has anyone else tried both A=maze-n and cooking pellets or others for comparison. I DID NOT like the Bear Mountain Hickory that came with the MAK, but I was very appreciative to have them thrown in for the burn-in process.

Interested in checking out the pellets you are using. Link?

I wonder who makes A-MAZE-N pellets? Last year when I looked on Lumberjacks dealer page they had A-MAZE-N listed so I assumed they were using Lumberjack pellets. But I just looked again and they are no longer listed as a dealer, but maybe it's like Cabelas does?
