CHINESE BBQ PORK⤵️
Recipe:
@madewithlau
— some adjustments
Serves: 5-6
2.5-3 lb pork shoulder/ pork butt/ pork belly
MARINADE
4 TBSP brown sugar
1 TBSP garlic salt
1 tsp five spice
2 TBSP oyster sauce
2 TBSP soy sauce
1 TBSP hoisin sauce
2 TBSP red wine
1 TBSP shaoxing wine
2 TBSP honey
2 tsp water
1/4 tsp red food coloring (optional)
HONEY MIXTURE
4 TBSP honey + 4 tsp water
1. My pork belly is about 1.5 - 2 inches thick and I have 2 slabs of this. Poke a bunch of holes all over your pork, front and back
2. Combine all of your ingredients listed under MARINADE. Mix well and then pour this all over your pork. (My pork is placed in a ziplock bag). Marinate over night.
3. Once it’s he next day and you are ready to cook, bring your pork down to room temp by letting it sit out for 30-60 minutes.
4. Now that your pork is at room temp, place onto a roasting rack and fill the bottom of your roasting rack up with water. Brush HONEY MIXTURE all over your pork and bake at 425F for 50 minutes, broil for 10 minutes (middle rack)
The breakdown of how to cook your pork:
- bake 425F for 15 minutes
- Brush HONEY MIXTURE all over, flip
- Bake again at 425F for 15 minutes
- Brush HONEY MIXTURE all over, flip
- Bake again at 425F for 10 minutes.
- Brush HONEY MIXTURE all over, flip
- Broil (on low) for 10 mins
- Total: 40 mins bake, 10 mins broil
6. Remove from heat, allow to cool and then thinly slice. I served mine with rice as one meal and then egg noodle soup as another meal.

How to Cook Authentic Cantonese Char Siu Roast Pork from scratch (蜜汁叉烧)
We're making Cantonese Char Siu BBQ pork! This is an awesome dish, and a worldwide favorite.
We wanted to show you guys the traditional way to make the Char Siu sauce from scratch, which was actually surprisingly difficult for us to figure out. So forgive our quick one minute backstory, we just wanted to let you guy know why our recipe might be so different to some others you've seen :)
However you cook this though - using either Lee Kum Kee or homemade sauce, either the oven or a charcoal grill - you'll end up getting a real tasty result.
As always, a detailed recipe and ingredient list is at a reddit comment in /r/cooking here:
One more thing - at 0:40 in the video, we wanted to include a section of a Chinese Char Siu cooking video. A special thank you to the YouTube channel 'Manaweblife' (actually Malaysian!) for providing that awesome video. Their channel's got a bunch of cool stuff, but check out the original video here:
ABOUT US
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm Chris Thomas from the United States and I've been living as an expat in China now for upwards of nine years, most of which in Shenzhen. I love living here, and the food is absolutely incredible. I read and speak some Chinese, and have been trying to religiously recreate the most authentic versions of the food I've eaten and loved here.
My partner in these videos is Stephanie Li, my similarly food-and-travel-obsessed long term girlfriend. She's a translator from Guangzhou and is an incredible home cook. Sometimes I'll be behind the wok but usually it'll be her cooking.
