Grilled Asian-Style Pork Belly | World on the Grill

Thisย Grilled Asian-Style Pork Belly is all about big flavor with minimal effort. A savory, slightly tangy marinade packed with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and Chinese five spice soaks deep into the pork, then gets caramelized over the grill for that perfect balance of crispy edges and juicy bites. Finished with a quick baste and a short rest, it's an easy crowd-pleaser that feels restaurant-worthy but is totally doable at home.

Ingredients

1-2 Lb Pork Belly Sliced ยผ'' to ยฝ'' Thick
1 Tablespoon Chopped Ginger
1 Tablespoon Chopped Garlic
ยพ Cup Soy Sauce
ยผ Cup Rice Wine Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Fish Sauce
1 Tablespoon Oyster Sauce
1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
1 Teaspoon Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Chinese 5 Spice
Juice of ยฝ Lemon

Instructions

1) Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine all ingredients except the pork belly. Mix well until fully incorporated.

2) Marinate the Pork Belly
Place pork belly slices into a vacuum-seal bag, zip-top bag, or shallow dish.
Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Add marinade to pork belly and let marinade for at least 4 hours but overnight is best.
If using a shallow dish, double the marinade for full coverage.

3) Marinating Time
Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

4) Prepare the Basting Sauce
Remove pork belly from the marinade and set aside.
Transfer the remaining marinade to a small saucepan.
Bring to a boil over medium heat, then immediately remove from heat.
This cooked marinade will be used for basting.

5) Preheat the Grill
Preheat grill to medium heat.
If your grill has a broil zone, set it to medium as well.

6) Grill the Pork Belly
Place pork belly slices directly on the grill grates.
Cook for 2โ€“3 minutes per side, flipping 3โ€“4 times total.

7) Baste While Cooking
Lightly baste the pork belly each time you flip to build layers of flavor and glaze.

8) Rest and Serve
Once the pork belly has a deep caramelized sear, remove from the grill.
Let rest for 5โ€“10 minutes before serving.
