Buying/Handling/Storing Tip:

Pork belly is not widely available in supermarkets, but can be ordered by meatcase managers upon request.

Other Pork Buying/Handling/Storing Tips

Ask Your Butcher

Request a leaner cut (relatively speaking, as this is not a traditionally lean cut) and be sure to specify whether you prefer it with or without skin. If you plan to make bacon, pork belly without skin will yield the best results.

About the Cut

Pork belly comes from a pig’s ‘belly’ or underside after the loin and spareribs have been removed. This boneless cut may be served fresh, which means it is not cured or smoked.
