I'm going through a "how to prepare pork belly" phase right now. Why ? Because.
I found the best way to prep for burnt ends is to remove the skin, salt, leave in fridge 24 hrs uncovered, then cold smoke for 2 hours, add rub, slow cook until 200F. wrap.in aluminum foil (don't add liquid), cook another 2-3 hours at 200F. Let cool. Dry. Put back in fridge to cool a few hours. Bring it out and cut into cubes.
Separate the cubes in batches for cooking later with sauce. Take from fridge, toss in sauce, cook at 350F until the sauce carmalizes. Any kind of bbq - teriyaki-soy-jerk sauce .
This is not a low calorie product. 150 cal / oz (same as bacon).
BTW...I went by the Moon diner the other day. Contrary to popular belief, they DO have Llama beans. It's just depends of the phases.
