How to make an entry?
I will show you this on the example of the most delicious pork belly that I ever tried!
Name: "Mei Cai" - The pork belly slowly cooked in fish sauce
Country: China
Price: 22 RM / 5.50 USD / 13.75 STEEM (that course ๐ญ)
Info: "Mei Cai" (this is how the name of the dish is pronounced in Chinese) is a kind of pork stew, which is a real bomb of taste!
Thanks to the fact it is cooked slowly for a long time in fish sauce, it is so delicate that you can eat it with a spoon! Literally! I never had the opportunity to try a piece of meat with such a delicate and creamy texture before.
A characteristic addition is Mui Choy, a kind of Chinese cabbage, which in consistency reminds mushrooms or seaweeds. However, it has a slightly mustard taste and that is very surprising. This was the first time I have tried this vegetable and I think it fits fantastic to the pork.
The whole dish doesn't need many spices because its ingredients have their own, intensive flavors. Thatโs why it is seasoned only with light and dark soy sauce, sugar and sesame oil. You simply have to try this dish and see for yourself what kind of perfection you can bring to preparing "ordinary" pork belly.
And now it's time for your entry!
Show us the dish with pork belly or bacon that comes from your country in the comment!
Good luck & have fun!

Name: "Arepas de chicharron" (arepas with crispy pork belly)
Country: Venezuela
Price: 250 BsS / 1 USD / 2.5 STEEM
Chicharron is the skin with pieces of pork meat freshly benefited, fried in hot cooking oil, in turn seasoned with a little salt, cooked in solid iron pots.
We can do many dishes with it or eat it alone because it's delicious.
The arepas de chicharron are the arepas that you know but with a special twist: the crispy pork belly (chicharron).
You just need precooked corn flour, crispy pork belly, salt and water.
Without a doubt, this arepa does not need any extra filling, but you can fill it with cheese or whatever you want.
@osmy07 I've heard so many good things about chicharron that I just have to try it one day! I really like bread with different meat extras, so I'm charmed by this dish. ๐
Name: Smoked Samgyupsal
Country: Philippines
Price: 40.00 Php | 0.80 Usd | 2.00 Steem
SAMGYUPSAL is a Korean word which means โPork bellyโ. It is usually marinated and seasoned with Korean flavours such as Korean soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, pepper, sugar, chili and more secret ingredients perhaps.
Honestly, I donโt know exactly what are the exact flavours but those are what I tasted. It was cooked over a grill or barbeque style.
Basically its a Korean Barbeque pork belly which I tasted at GEN KOREAN BBQ HOUSE, Philippines... And it was so good, the pork is so soft and tasty with the best combination of Kimchi, pickled turnips and onion and fresh vegetable salad.
Also, the price was so cheap!!! The resto is an eat all you can, you can get as many Samgyupsal as you want and the other interesting part, the costumer will be the one to cook it over the grill on top of the table. Yum! ๐
You find it in my food blog at [Trip to Manila GEN Korean Barbeque House
The combination of those spices with the belly, kimchi and pickled turnips must be amazing! Awesome entry! ๐OMG! What a set @travelsbyblue!

Lechon Pork Belly is a special food here in the Philippines served during fiesta and all special occassions.
This food is a whole big slice of pork belly rolled and stuffed inside with lemon grass, onion, garlic, salt, black peppercorns and bay leaves and tied with fabric string to secure the stuff. Then marinate the whole piece with pure pineapple juice with salt and pepper for about 6 hours or more, the longer time will make it more tasty.
After that, it will be cook in perfection in the oven or rotisserie until tender and crispy.
When its done, the whole piece of this Lechon Pork Belly is good for about 10 persons. The meat is so tender and juicy while the outside or skin is crackling with crispiness in every bite.

Description: The leg is the leg of the pig, in Venezuela is very important part of our Christmas table, our traditional Christmas dinner is ham, ham bread, hallaca and chicken salad, this dish has become very expensive in Venezuela and because to the crisis this year many will not be able to have it at your table, by the time you ask the price per kilo was 2,500 bs surely is already more expensive. This leg is marinated many days in advance, at home it is placed all the spices, salt and beer or special wine for cooking, on December 24 it is put to the oven at low heat since being a thick part requires many hours of cooking so that it is not raw inside, as it is cooking is placed beer or wine so it does not dry, the result is a piece of very juicy pig, with a scent that invades the whole house, and the taste It is from another world.
This is our Christmas dish of the past Christmas, this year we will have the pleasure of enjoying it as our leg awaits in the freezer.
