Pork Roll
Hai, I made a pork roll, and get this, the insides were tastier than the skin! I know, if I hadn’t made it, I would also have thought I were crazypants, too.
I bought a whole pork belly and decided to try a stuffed pork roll. Stuffed it with some shallots and a carrot, I think.
Here’s what my slicing skeelz gave:
A 6-story pork high rise. 
The piece I used for the pork was just a smidge under a pound. So close. 
Cracked open one of my noble Trappist ale home brews (you could use any Belgian beer), sliced the meat side up a bit, and poured the beer into a dish so it marinated the meat-side of the pork. 
After a few hours, I trussed it up with the stuffing ingredients and roasted it for a few more hours.
Done! Now enjoy fatty-licious pork. Belgian-beer marinades go really, REALLY well with pork. So doing that again in the future.
Holy crap this looks good.
Hello,
Where did you source the Pork Belly? Thanks!
Roma in Latham for $1.99/lb!
You are a woman after my own heart. Also.. OINK
Did you order it special there? I’ve never seen it and I shop there all the time!!!
I usually ask them if they have any in the back. Sometimes they do, sometimes it’s a frozen whole belly, and sometimes they don’t and order more. But yeah, I’ve never seen it for sale in the display case.
