Cut the pork belly into 1.5 to 2-inch chunks.

Season the pork belly chunks with Dirty Bird hot seasoning, mixing them well to ensure they are covered.

Preheat the pit barrel grill.

Place the seasoned pork belly chunks onto the grill.

Cover the grill and cook for about 1 hour.

After 1 hour, open the grill and flip the pork belly chunks quickly to avoid losing heat.

Cover the grill again and cook for an additional 30 to 45 minutes, checking for doneness.

Once the pork belly chunks are cooked, toss them in sweet apple Chipotle sauce and return them to the grill for a final cook.
