Grilled Liempo (Pork Belly)

We made a quickie run to pick up some boxes at the local market yesterday and we were able to score some sliced pork belly. It's been a while since we had grilled pork belly so it was a great find. 

Unfortunately, it is currently drizzling outside so we don't actually have ourdoor barbeque weather so we're grilling this indoors. We're not complaining because the rain is helping keep the pollen count in the air down, thus alleviating our allergies. Smelling like grilled liempo the rest of the day seems like a small price to pay anyway.


One of the small consolations that we have when we grill is seeing the amount of fat drippings collected from the meat. Today, we grilled 3 lbs worth of pork belly, enough for a few meals, and we got around 11oz worth of drippings.

Scary, no ?
