Rather than dry the skin with paper towels, if you can plan ahead, leave
the pork uncovered in the fridge for a couple of days.

Yes, that works really well.

Here's a technique you could try. I haven't tried it myself because it's tough finding a suitable piece. You might be able to though.

That's my favorite roast pork. You tell the Chinese guy you want
half-pound roast pork and he gets his Chinese cleaver and whacks out the
pieces in seconds. It's pretty scary to watch but that pork makes it all
worthwhile. The Chinese guy across the street used to make it but his
business is closed down. I've been waiting for him to open for the last
5 years. I don't know if he'll ever open back up you better believe I'm
gonna order Chinese roast pork from him when he does!

You could make it yourself? I have saved your recipe and will use it,
although I will use different seasonings. Just think, you could have it when
ever you want it )

It's not easy to get pork belly of the proper size. It's a popular food item over here but for some reason, it's mostly sold in strips. If I ever find a nice piece, I will make it.
