Do I want to give this a shot? Looks damn good, and I'd bet all the fat from the pork belly would
turn that otherwise dry pork loin into a connoisseur's dream:

Wife brought a loin home yesterday, and I just checked with the local Lowes Foods and they have pork belly. I'll be cooking one of these tomorrow. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Please do! Our Costco carries both also.

Tim, John... I wanted to like it, but I just don't like the pork belly that much. I followed their directions, and the loin is certainly moist and tender, but the belly didn't render as much as I'd like. I've had belly before and the fattiness of it just turns me off.

Trimmed of the excess fat and sliced up, it makes a pretty good sandwich.

Thanks for the report. Bill suggests a longer cook. Do you think that would help? Maybe two or three
hours at 225 or so and then up the temp to 325? Or maybe just leave it at 225 for five or six hours
until the loin gets up to 135 (which seems a bit low to me).
