I have seen people smoke pork belly on a pellet grill several times but never tried it myself because they are hard to find where I live.
Recently I found some in Sam's Club and stocked up on them since they were on sale also.
There are so many things you can do with a pork belly, from making bacon to pork belly burnt ends and everything in between.
