12, 12 oz Cans of Coca Cola

3 Cups Soy Sauce

3 Cups Worcestershire

14 oz Achiote Paste “Red”

3/4 Cup Liquid Smoke

2 Tbsp Chili Flakes

2 Tbsp Granulated Garlic

2 Tbsp Granulated Onion

1 dozen 3in corn tortillas

1/2 cup diced roasted pineapple

1/2 cup pickled red onions

1/2 (2 oz) Package Imitation Crab, Chopped

Directions

Mix Coca-Cola, soy sauce, Worcestershire, achiote paste, liquid smoke, chili flakes, granulated garlic, and granulated onion to create the marinade.

Then, place the pork belly in the marinade and allow it to sit for at least 8 hours, 24 hours is best.

After at least 8 hours, remove the pork belly from the marinade and allow it to air dry.

Then, preheat your smoker to 275 degrees, and season the pork belly with your favorite Pit Boss BBQ Rub and raw sugar.

Next, place the pork belly directly onto the grates of the smoker, and smoke for 1 hour.

Then, baste with butter, and cook for another hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

Remove the pork belly from the smoker and place it into an aluminum pan. Then baste with butter, add one can of Coke to the pan, and cover with aluminum foil.
