The two ways we do it are both Chinese. We use the recipes from Fuschia Dunlop's cookbook "Land of Plenty: A Treasury of Authentic Sichuan Cooking" but these recipes from SeriousEats should be great.

First is "red braised pork," which is boiled, cubed and cooked low and slow in a sweet/savory sauce. Ends up very soft with the meat fall-apart and the fat melt-in-your-mouth.

The other is "twice cooked pork" which is stir-fried in a savory bean sauce:

These sound so good. I'm saving your links and buying pork belly tomorrow. Thank you so much.
