Char Siu (叉燒) - Chinese BBQ Pork

Step 1

We'll cut our pork shoulder into long slices, roughly about 1 inch thick.

Step 2

To a bowl, we'll add:

Step 3

Place the meat into a ziploc bag, pour the sauce in, and massage the pork for about 2 minutes so that the sauce is able to finesse its way into the meat. Afterwards, we’ll push all the air out of the bag and seal it.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 425° F or 218° C.

Step 5

Now, we’ll be placing the pork into the oven and taking it out periodically to lather it again with either our leftover pork marinade, or honey diluted with water.

Step 6

Once the char siu has finished its last cycle in the oven, we'll lather each side with our diluted honey.
