Ingredients
- 4 pounds pork belly with ribs
- ½ cup vinegar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- With a knife, pierce the skin a few times. Pour vinegar over and massage on the meat.
- Rub garlic powder, salt, and pepper all over the meat.
- Refrigerate overnight, uncovered and skin side up, to chill.
- With paper towels, pat down surfaces the pork belly to completely dry. Arrange on a roasting pan fitted with a rack.
- Bake in a preheated 180 F oven for about 3 hours.
- Increase temperature to 320 F and continue to cook for about 1 to 1 ½ hours or until meat is cooked through and browns.
- Increase temperature to 430 F and continue to cook for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the skin is very crisp.
- Remove from oven and allow to rest for about 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Serve immediately
Notes
- Have the butcher cut through the ribs without going through the meat to make it easier to chop the lechon into pieces when serving.
- Use a roasting rack to ensure even heat circulation and browning. Do not use a baking dish, as the rendered fat will pool around the meat, affecting the crunchy texture.
