If you’re looking for maximum flavour with minimal effort, Woolworths’ smoked pork belly has you covered. This pork belly roast is wood-smoked and seasoned with black pepper, then vacuum-packed to lock in all that bold, smoky flavour, ready for the braai or oven. It’s the perfect canvas for elevated meals that don’t ask too much of you. Even better? It’s part of Woolworths’ Kinder to Sows initiative, which means you can feel good about where it comes from and how it's raised in more ethical conditions, with higher welfare standards from farm to table.

Pork belly bánh mì-inspired sandwich

A southeast Asian street food classic gets a local twist. This recipe layers slices of smoky, tender pork belly with pickled carrots, creamy mayo, jalapeños, sriracha and fresh herbs – all packed into a crusty roll. It’s the perfect balance of sweet, salty, spicy and sour, ideal for a show-off lunch or a quick dinner that delivers. While not strictly a traditional bánh mì, it takes all the best cues from it, with a distinctly South African edge.
