Slow Roast BBQ Pork Belly, Corn on the Cobb & Coleslaw
This is a very satisfying meal with the trick being to cook the pork belly the day before ready to BBQ and make the coleslaw in advance, leaving only cooking the corn and BBQing the Pork belly when ready to serve. The pork can also be reheated in the oven with BBQ sauce as an alternative to grilling.
