Pork Belly Week Is Back at 2fifty

Some cuts make noise when they come back. Pork belly is one of them.

For months, we’ve been getting the same question at the counter, in DMs, and from regulars who know the rhythm. When is Pork Belly Week coming back?

Now it is.

‍

Starting Wednesday 28 through Sunday, February 1, Pork Belly Week returns to 2fifty. Five days. One cut per day. One direction at a time.

This is not a special we slide onto the board lightly. Pork belly asks for attention. It asks for patience. And it asks for a pitmaster who knows when to wait and when to move.

For Fernando González, this week is about listening to the meat. Letting the fat render on its own time. Letting the smoke settle in slowly. No rushing. No shortcuts. When it’s right, you feel it before you taste it.

That’s why Pork Belly Week exists. And that’s why it only comes around when we’re ready to do it right.

A New Drop Every Day

Every morning during Pork Belly Week, the board changes.

Each day brings a different direction, rooted in flavor but always anchored in barbecue. Here’s how the week lines up:

Wednesday, January 28

Al Pastor Pork Belly

Thursday, January 29

Char Siu Pork Belly

Friday, January 30

Green Spaghetti with Caramelized Pork Belly

Saturday, January 31

Pork Belly Burnt Ends

Sunday, February 1

Hot Honey Pork Belly. Encore.

Once that day’s pork belly is gone, it’s gone.

Cooked in Small Batches, On Purpose

We don’t scale Pork Belly Week to last all day. We cook it to be right.

That means smaller batches, tighter windows, and attention at every step. It also means timing matters. Earlier is always better, especially if you have a specific dish in mind.

Winter helps too. Shorter lines. More time at the counter. More room to watch the cutters work.

Come Hungry. Come Early.

Pork Belly Week runs Wedbesday 28 through February 1 at both locations.

If you’ve been waiting for it, this is your window.

Come early.

Watch the board.

Follow the smoke.

We’ll be at the pit.
