Low and slow smoked porky goodness all smothered in a sweet and buttery sauce.  While this dish is delicious, let\u2019s face it, after having 2-3 pieces you are done.  It\u2019s heavy and filling.  This smoked <strong>Tequila Lime Burnt Ends<\/strong> recipe fixes that.  <em>It\u2019s lighter, less sweet, savory and zesty.  <\/em>The tequila lime sauce is the perfect compliment to the pork as it breaks through the fat.

Pork belly burnt ends are made of, well, pork belly.  These are fattier because of the location of the cut.  Poor mans burnt ends are made from beef using a chuck roast, unlike the more expensive brisket.  While the flavors and proteins are different, both have a rich BBQ flavor from the smoked meat, sweet and buttery BBQ sauce.  Poor mans burnt ends have a lot more meat on them making them more enjoyable, in my opinion. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredient-list-for-tequila-lime-burnt-ends\">Ingredient List for Tequila Lime Burnt Ends.<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" alt=\"tequila lime burnt ends ingredient list.\" class=\"wp-image-16351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-400x533.jpg 400w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25.jpg\" alt=\"tequila lime burnt ends ingredient list.\" class=\"wp-image-16351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Worchestershire-Sauce-25-400x533.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pork belly: <\/strong>I used about 5 lbs. of pork belly.

It\u2019s a large slab around 10 pounds but very well priced. For this recipe, I only used half of the pork belly and saved the rest for another day.  Just wrap the unwanted piece and place it in the freezer.  <\/p>\n<p>When shopping for pork belly, make sure it does not have the skin on.  Smoking with the skin will make the burnt ends chewy, tough and unpleasant to eat.  <\/p>\n<p>Next, slice down the belly cutting long even strips and then cube them into 1-inch squares.  You want them big enough for one bite. And remember, they will shrink when they cook. <\/p>\n<p>Because these are going into a marinade, there is no need to season first.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-make-a-tequila-lime-marinade\">Make a tequila lime marinade.<\/h2>\n<p>I wanted to add more flavor to my pork belly burnt ends and what better way than with a delicious marinade.

Drop in some of the lime peels in the marinade. <\/p>\n<p>Next add soy sauce, minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes.  Mix the ingredients together.<\/p>\n<p>I did not use any salt in the marinade since the soy sauce has high sodium levels and will do the same job.  The salt helps pull moisture into the meat making it juicier. Adding other ingredients can add flavor to the protein.<\/p>\n<p>Drop the cubed-up pork belly and marinate these in the fridge for at least an hour.

You can also make this in the oven but will lose any of the smokiness you naturally get from making it on the grill.<\/p>\n<p>Place the full wire rack on a baking sheet and on the grill it goes.  The baking sheet will catch any rendered fat and marinade drippings from greasing up the grill.  Keeping the pork belly cubes on the wire rack will allow airflow all around and cook it evenly.<\/p>\n<p>Leave the<strong> Tequila Lime Burnt Ends<\/strong> on the grill for about 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 190 degrees.  Do a squish test before removing them from the grill.  If they seem soft and pillowy it\u2019s time to sauce them up.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-a-tequila-lime-bbq-sauce\">How to make a tequila lime BBQ sauce.<\/h2>\n<p>With the used marinade in a saucepan, add some agave and brown sugar to sweeten the tequila lime sauce and balance all the savory and zesty flavors.  Don\u2019t worry, this sauce will not be crazy sweet! <\/p>\n<p>Add taco seasoning and whisk the ingredients together and bring everything to a boil.  This will kill all bacteria that was transferred from the raw pork. Next, lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens slightly.  <\/p>\n<p>The heat will also cook off the alcohol making it safe to eat for kids.<\/p>\n<p>Key thing to remember is that the sauce will not be tacky and gooey as most BBQ sauces.  The sugar will caramelize during the cook, thickening it just enough to glaze the tequila lime burnt ends.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-primary-background-color has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"block-cookbook cwp-large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large block-cookbook__image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1000\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8445\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-1200x1000.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-768x640.jpg 768w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-400x333.jpg 400w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-1200x1000.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-1200x1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8445\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-1200x1000.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-768x640.jpg 768w, https:\/\/grillinwithdad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/GWDtrio-400x333.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group block-cookbook__content is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"is-style-heading has-huge-font-size\">Dad\u2019s Seasonings <\/p>\n<p>Must have grillin seasonings!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sauce-up-the-tequila-lime-burnt-ends\">Sauce up the tequila lime burnt ends.<\/h2>\n<p>This is the final stretch!

Did you smoke it long enough at a low temperature?  Do not remove smoked pork belly until the internal temperature is 190 degrees Fahrenheit.  Check for softness.  If firm, keep it on the grill.  Did you braise it long enough or at all?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1740934382646\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does pork belly get more tender the longer you cook it?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, a long low and slow method is the best way to get tender and juicy pork belly.
