Today I’m making Maple Bourbon Pork Belly bites for Loggerhead distillery’s 5 year anniversary.

Recipe for Maple Bourbon glaze

1 cup maple syrup
1 cup bourbon
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 apple cider vinegar

I would probably do more maple syrup and cook that down with the brown sugar, then add the bourbon. The glaze came out kind of thin. Would like to have it a bit thicker.

Cut pork belly into strips or cubes. Season them how you like and cook till almost tender. Smoker was around 250/275. Pull them off let them cool a bit. Cut into bite size pieces and then glaze them and wrap them up and back on the smoker. Best served fresh.
