Instructions
For the Slow Roasted Pork Belly
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Remove skin from the piece of meat. Score the fat cap in criss cross sections through the fat but not into the meat itself. Generously coat with salt and pepper, rubbing into the criss cross sections and on all sides of the meat.
Place in a roasting pan fat side up and roast in oven for 3 hours. After 3 hours, increase heat to 400 degrees and bake for another half an hour basting every 10 minutes until crunchy on top.
Remove from oven and let cool. You can make this ahead of time and put in refrigerator until ready to make sandwiches.
For the Asian Slaw
Combine all ingredients. Put in refrigerator to chill for an hour or longer for flavors to blend.
For the Chipotle Mayonnaise

Slice slider buns in half, slather sides with chipotle mayonnaise.
