Procedure:

  1. Heat oven to 375°
  2. In small bowl mix together brown sugar, soy sauce, stir fry sauce, rice vinegar, orange sauce, garlic and ginger. Mix well, until sugar is dissolved.
  3. Slice pork belly in ¼ to 1/3rd inch slices. Slice in half, length wise.
  4. Add to glaze ingredients. Coat well. Let marinate for a few minutes. Lay out on half sheet pan with wire rack. Reserve liquid to use for basting.
  5. Bake for 45 minutes. Basting every 15 minutes. Remove from oven and baste one more time.
  6. While baking belly, make coleslaw dressing, slaw and bao.
  7. Place vegetable oil, honey, rice vinegar, low sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, peanut butter, garlic and ginger in blender. Blend until smooth.
  8. Place coleslaw mix, bell pepper, scallions and peanuts in medium sized bowl, add dressing and toss until well coated. Set aside.

Build: Place steamed and split bao in plate or taco holder. Lay in one piece pork belly. Make sure the glaze is present. Top with one ounce coleslaw. Garnish with bias cut scallions.

Notes: I like to use a pre-cooked sous vide belly. Neutral flavor and smoke. This will cut your cook time significantly. Thaw and slice product.
Broccoli slaw mix can be used in place of cabbage mix.

Those ingredients are transformed through a traditional brewing process—much like making wine or beer—that has remained unchanged for centuries.
