Pork Belly Mac Skillet

Ooey, gooey, and utterly amazing! This smoked pork belly burnt ends and creamy mac n’ cheese recipe creates a harmony of deep, savory flavors that define the ultimate in comfort food bliss. The pork belly burnt ends are irresistibly tender, boasting a caramelized exterior and bursting with smoky richness, balancing salty, sweet, and subtle spicy notes from the bold barbecue seasonings. Pairing these with creamy mac and cheese elevates both, as the pasta’s velvety cheese sauce provides a smooth, mellow sharpness that tempers the burnt ends’ robust flavors. The mac and cheese wraps every noodle in creamy goodness, serving as the perfect counterpoint to the punchy, smoky pork.
