Details

Pork belly is uncured and un-sliced bacon — a fatty cut of meat from the underside of the pig near the loin. It has that beautiful fatty, bacon flavor you love, with more meat. To break down the connective tissue in the meat, pork belly is best slow-cooked for a tender chew and to render the fat silky-soft. If you like crispy skin, after slow-cooked, crank up the heat for the final 20-30 minutes.

Cooking Instructions

Defrosting:

  1. Remove the pork belly from the freezer and place it in the refrigerator to defrost. Allow 24-48 hours for every 4-5 pounds of meat.
  2. If you need to defrost the pork belly more quickly, you can use the cold water method. Place the sealed pork belly in a large bowl or sink filled with cold water. Change the water every 30 minutes until the pork belly is completely defrosted. This method usually takes 2-3 hours.
    Cooking:
  3. Preheat your oven to 325°F.
  4. Remove the pork belly from the packaging and pat it dry with paper towels.
  5. Score the skin of the pork belly in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.
  6. Season the pork belly with salt, pepper, and your choice of spices or marinade.
  7. Place the pork belly in a roasting pan or baking dish, skin side up.
  8. Roast the pork belly in the oven for 2-3 hours, or until it is cooked through and tender.
  9. Increase the oven temperature to 450°F and roast the pork belly for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
  10. Remove the pork belly from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
    Enjoy your delicious and perfectly cooked pork belly!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Reach out to our customer success team directly at orders@shoplocale.com
Can I order from multiple vendors in one order?
Yes! Our service allows you to order from as many vendors as you like. After selecting your region and delivery date at the top of the page, you'll be able to browse all the products that are available. Regardless of how many products or vendors you order you'll only pay the $5 flat delivery fee (there’s a $6 small order fee if your order is less than $50)
How much is the delivery fee? Are there any other fees?
The delivery fee is $5 flat, no matter how many small businesses you order from. We have no other service fees, however, there’s a $6 small order fee if your order is less than $50. There are no subscriptions, order only when you want!
Do I have to be home for the delivery?
You do not have to be home at the time of delivery - your order will be packed to stay fresh for up to 4 hours. You’ll receive a text when your order is on its way with a link to track your driver.
Do items arrive fresh or frozen?
You can click on a product to see the state that it arrives in. Most pastries are baked the same day as delivery and meals are either frozen or fresh and arrive with cooking instructions.
Can I add to my order?
Yes! You can add to your order up until the day before delivery. Just use the code ADD at checkout.
Is Locale environmentally friendly?
Yes! While we deliver from far away vendors, we batch all orders - meaning we pick up and deliver to many customers all on one driver's route. This means that your order doesn’t actually increase the amount of miles that we drive. We also reuse almost all of our packaging and you can leave boxes from your previous orders out that our drivers will pick up! Read more here.
