Ingredients For the Marinade: 2 lbs pork shoulder or pork belly 3 tbsp hoisin sauce 2 tbsp soy sauce 2 tbsp oyster sauce 2 tbsp honey 1 tbsp Chinese five-spice powder 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry) 1 tbsp sesame oil 1 tbsp dark soy sauce (for color) 2 tbsp sugar 3 cloves garlic (minced) 1/2 tsp white pepper 1/2 tsp red food coloring (optional, for authentic look) For the Glaze: 2 tbsp honey 1 tbsp maltose or extra honey 1 tbsp hoisin sauce Instructions Prepare the Pork: Slice pork into thick strips, about 2 inches wide. Make the Marinade: Mix all marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add pork strips and coat evenly. Cover and marinate for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight). Roasting the Pork: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange marinated pork on the rack and reserve extra marinade. Roast for 25 minutes, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade. Caramelizing the Glaze: Mix honey, maltose, and hoisin sauce for the glaze. After 25 minutes, brush the glaze onto the pork and increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Roast for another 10-15 minutes until caramelized and slightly charred. Final Touch: Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serving Suggestions: Serve with steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy with pickled vegetables or Chinese mustard on the side. . #charsiu #bbqpork #asiancuisine
