Pork Belly Slices

[Vagus]

With carrot and potato crush, cauliflower, homemade apple sauce and gravy.
Have to get a handle on the air fryer again as we've been away and I've not used it for a couple of weeks. I'm thinking 180o for 25 minutes, turning them half way for the pork...whadyathink??

No idea about air fryers but I'm having pork carnitas tonight with flor de gallo, wraps and salad. And a very large glass of Sauvignon Blanc 

[Vagus]

Yikes Rocky, that sounds very exotic, had to look all that up. Flor de Gallo...flowers???

Not keen on pulled pork or other meats, gets stuck in my teeth and I'm not keen on the texture but it all sounds v tasty 😋 esp the wine 🍷😉

Did I dream it or did you recently post about pork belly slices? Apologies if it wasn't you.

The beauty with the air fryer is you can keep checking on them and keep going if you think they need longer.

[pastafreak]

Can't help, as I've always done my belly slices in the slow cooker...maybe next time. Let us know what temperature and time you do.

I'm pulling black pudding meatballs from the freezer for later...they are in a tomato sauce, so not sure of veg yet.

I've just made a cottage cheese bread as recommended by my daughter...baked in the airfyer. I'm impressed...its delicious 😋.

Since acquiring an air fryer I've invested in a meat thermometer probe which I find very useful.

Are you cooking your carnitas drowned in lard, rocky?

I cook pork belly in the slow cooker, too. 

[Vagus]

Well, I did them for 25 mins at 180 and they weren't perfect. probably could have done with a bit longer.

Having not used the air fryer for a couple of weeks I was unsure of temp and time. Need to reacquaint muself with this contraption 🤷‍♀️

jesus vagus at least those tidy mods have allowed this  thread to continue - your  other  one  has  been unfairly gagged. Perhaps THAT was why people gave up

yeah I think your temp was OK but do a bit longer, I am no stranger to slashing the pork belly ( a trick I learnt on AB) to see if it were done

apple sauce yummy

[Vagus]

Peter, stop it.

I'm glad my other thread was gagged, I really didn't want it to degenerate into anything other than what I started it for...

[cashier]

What is flor de gallo? Google shows a flower.

[Peter Pedant]

I'm glad my other thread was gagged - your  mouth  stuffed with yummy crispy portk belly perhaps.

Yes or no I had done a wonderul review of past authors full of Latin Greek and Aramaic  references taking  me  at LEAST as long  as pork belly air fryer  ( minutes and minutes - hours!)(*)- politely ignoring some of their plankier posts = and it went down the jarn

do the pork belly for longer

We used to call pork belly 'end o lean' because it was a cut from the cheapest cut of the meat, where the fat met the meat.  Now it's trendy.

Heart attack on a plate

[Vagus]

I'll take the risk 💔

Last time I did them in the air fryer they were the best ever, so I'm not entirely convinced about slow cooking them.

We called it bellydraft. Nice with crispy rind. Does get stuck in your teeth.

[barry1010]

I still call it belly draft.

All the old cheap cuts have been renamed and priced up. I remember when breast of lamb was almost given away and rib of beef was called chine
