Smoked belly, cheese, pickled red onions and dijon mustard(thanks to @motosan) on a bun.
So what is it that we do at Smokeywest BBQ?
We trim, season and cook our meats low n slow … terminology used for cooking meats with a lot of connectivity tissue and muscles till it literally breakdown and become juicy and tender. Now many can cook meat to tenderness with many tools like a slow cooker, or a pressure cooker and the meat will come out tender falling apart, but most of the time, without the soup base or the water its cooked in, the meat is pretty dry, all the flavour goes into the soup leaving the meat tender, but dry.
With the low n slow method, it breaks down the collagen and tissues into a gelatin, breaking down the muscle within the protein all at the same time. While cooking, we are including lots of wood for that smokiness you cant get in an over, slow cooker or pressure cooker.
Our smokers use water pans that help maintain the low heat as well as releasing humidity to maintain moisture as well as helping the seasoning and oil from the meat to create that tasty bark that many confuse it with being burnt and that is the furthest from the truth.
The bark is formed at low temperature heat, along with the seasonings (our signature rub), the rendering fat from the meat and the humidity plus time, creates that awesome bark that is filled with mouth-watering flavor's that just compliments the meat.
Those same flavor's are those same combinations that when we taste it, it just creates a taste not experience before in other types of cooking. This is what makes Texas BBQ so famous.
In the video, it shows how the bark is as the meat below it is just falling apart on our Belgium imported smoked bellies.
Surprise your family and friends with this meal and you will be the talk of the dinner. You wont regret it!
