Easy Crispy Pork Belly
When I was in Seoul Korea for my skincare treatments, I was astounded about all the delicious protein options at my fingertips! Something I ate almost daily was crispy pork belly! I usually do not like pork but wow, this was absolutely delicious! As soon as I got home, I created a recipe for you all to enjoy!
JOIN ME FOR CRISPY PORK BELLY IN KOREA
I have exciting news! If you want to join me on my next trip to Seoul Korea for beauty treatments and exploring the culture, and enjoy crispy pork belly from the best Korean chefs, I am hosting a retreat and you are invited!
My best friends are people who have come on my past retreats! No lie, when you travel with me, you are promised to be friends with me for life!
The best advertisements for my retreats: MOST PEOPLE COME ON MULTIPLE RETREATS BECAUSE THEY HAVE SO MUCH FUN!
Do not be afraid to travel alone! I am going alone, and many women have come alone and end up making great friends with everyone! I also love traveling alone (I don’t have to take care of my spouse or children!)
What We Will Do in Seoul
This retreat is different than most of my retreats but it will not only include the best beauty treatments that Seoul has, it will also have plenty of culture, delicious food, 
fantastic hair treatments and spa experiences!
We will also explore my favorite night markets together and have so much fun!
I do not do these retreats for money and that is why they are so affordable! I do them because I LOVE them. It is one of my favorite things in life that I look forward to. I’ve made friends for life with people who have come on my retreats. On my last retreat, I never laughed so much in my life!
I have said this before, but no matter if you are keto or not, there is no judging on any of my retreats! As long as you come with a smile, that is the only requirement, and you are guaranteed to have an AMAZING time!

Easy Crispy Pork Belly
Favorite Go to Favorite RecipesIngredients
- 16 ounces pork belly (with skin on)
- 1 teaspoon Redmond Real salt divided
- 1/2 teaspoon Chinese 5 spice
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1/2 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar (or any vinegar)
Instructions
- Note: Do not make anymore than you can eat in one meal. This does not keep well and does not reheat well.
- Heat a large pot with water until boiling. Place your pork belly into the water with skin side down for 1 minute. Flip and boil another 30 seconds. Remove from heat and place into a water bath. This will remove the impurities.
- Use a sharp knife, score the skin into 1-inch strips, going only deep enough to break the skin, try not to cut too much into the fat, and definitely not into the meat.
- Using a meat tenderizer, a metal skewer, a thick wooden skewer, or an ice pic, poke as many holes as you can in the pork skin, being careful not to go too deep and puncture the meat.
- Turn the pork meat side up, and sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt evenly over the meat. Then sprinkle ½ teaspoon 5-spice powder and rub it evenly into the meat. Finally, sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper and press it in. Be careful not to let any of the spices get onto the skin.
- Rinse hands if you've have spices on it, so it won't get on the skin, then turn the pork back skin side up. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of salt thoroughly over the skin; I prefer using coarser grain salt like kosher salt for this so it's easier to see that you have salted the skin evenly. Let sit for about 20 mins until you see lots of water drawn up out of the skin. Dab it dry, and brush off any remaining grains of salt.
- Place pork into a container and refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 18-24 hours to dry out the skin.
- To make the pork belly, preheat oven to 375°F, set the rack in the middle of the oven. Put pork on a rack so heat can circulate around the meat, then set it on top of foil-lined baking sheet and wrap the foil tightly around the meat, yet leaving the skin uncovered (like a boat). This will keep the meat tender.
- Roast for 70 to 90 minutes or until internal temp reaches a minimum of 145F. 50 minutes usually gives you juicy pork that is still beautifully pink inside. If you want well-done pork you will have to roast it for at least 60 minutes for this size, for a minimum temp of 160°F.
- TIP: You can take the pork to this stage up to 4 hours in advance, let it sit at room temp, and broil the skin about 40 minutes before ready to serve.
- To Crisp The Skin: Once the pork is done, remove from the oven and brush the skin lightly with vinegar. Increase oven to 425 degrees F and roast for 20-30 minutes or until the skin has puffy and is crispy.
- Remove from oven and enjoy! Call me crazy, but I ate this with truffle mushroom soup in Seoul and it was my favorite meal!

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
What I feel is the best advertisement for my retreats is that most people are repeat travelers! 5 of the people on my India retreat also were on past retreats and they had so much fun, they come on multiple retreats!
Anessa came on 4 of my retreats! I first met her on my Bali retreat where she was 180 pounds. On each retreat, she shrinks from being inspired to change her diet. Check out her transformation! The first photo was with elephants in Bali, the second photo was with elephants in India!
Most people I consult are doing keto totally wrong. Get fast results with the my Mind-blowing Keto School!
