  • Prepare your grill for low indirect heat (250° - 350 °F or 121° - 175 °C). Soak the Weber® Cherry Wood Chips in water for 30 minutes before grilling.
  • Mix the rub ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Cut the pork belly into 1” thick strips and brush with mustard, sprinkle the rub completely covering the strips and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Remove the pork belly from the refrigerator, add the chips directly to the coals or in your Weber Original Smoker Box and transfer the strips to your grill over indirect heat, smoke for 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 180 °F.
  • Remove the pork belly from the grill, cut into 1 cubes and transfer them to a Weber® Drip Tray. Add the butter, honey, and BBQ sauce to taste, cover with aluminum foil, and return the tray to the grill over indirect heat until the internal temperature of the cubes is 195 °F to 200 °F, about one hour.
  • Remove the pork belly cubes from the tray and serve hot. Accompany with BBQ sauce to taste.
