- optional 2 grams MSG
- 200 ml. pineapple juice

INSTRUCTIONS:
- Blend well salt, sugar, optional MSG, pepper and garlic powder. Set aside.
- Slit belly 0.75 to 1 inch deep on flesh side and 1.5 to 2 inches apart. (These slits will let flavors in).

- After 25 minutes retrieve belly. Turn. Now it’s flesh side up. Cover with foil.
- Step down temp to 275deg.F (135deg.C). Wedge belly unto oven again.
- Slow cook for 1 hour 15 minutes or until internal temp registers 155deg.F (68deg.C). Done.
