Method
Sauce In bowl, combine broth, vinegar, garlic, oil, honey, oregano and basil; season with salt and pepper. Transfer 1/4 cup of sauce to small bowl and mix with mustard; refrigerate until ready to serve. Set aside remaining sauce.
Pork Belly Place pork on work surface, skin side up. Using knife, make diagonal incisions in skin. Sprinkle with coarse salt and season with pepper. Rub meat to allow seasoning to penetrate skin.
In large skillet over high heat, sear pork, skin side down until nicely browned.
Transfer pork to slow cooker, skin side up. Pour reserved remaining sauce into slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low for 7 hours.
Preheat oven to broil. Transfer pork to baking sheet, skin side up, and broil until skin is crispy and golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
Pour reserved mustard sauce over pork. Slice pork, sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve with Seasoned White Beans.
Seasoned White Beans In large skillet, heat 3 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add one chopped shallot; cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes. Add two chopped cloves garlic; cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes. Stir in two rinsed and drained 540 ml cans white beans. Cook, stirring frequently, until beans are warmed through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat; season with salt and pepper and drizzle with 2 tbsp white wine vinegar. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh flatleaf parsley and 1 tsp Italian herb seasoning. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
