Preparation

Step 1

Remove the skin from the pork belly and slice the meat into 1/8" - 1/4" wide strips. Stir together the soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, chili paste, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Place the meat in the bowl with the marinade and toss with your fingers or tongs to coat thoroughly. Marinate for 1 hour.
Preheat the grill to HIGH. Grill the strips of pork belly for 2 minutes, flip and grill another 2-3 minutes. When the pork has cooked through, remove from the grill and place it on a paper towel lined tray. Enjoy!
Serving suggestions: 
For tacos like we enjoyed at Salty Sow, place a strip of pork belly into a small flour tortilla, add a sprinkling of cheese (Asiago, Feta, Cotija all work well), some greens (Arugula, Spinach, or Crispy Brussel Sprouts ), and then top with a fried egg.
Alternatively, serve the grilled pork belly strips with roasted potato wedges and a salad. The grilled pork belly strips would also be delicious alongside scrambled eggs and toast.
