Hawaii Chinese Char Siu Pork Recipe

Aromatic, smoky, savory & a little sweet, Cantonese classic dish Char Siu (Chinese BBQ pork) is one of the tastiest ways to roast pork. Try my easy recipe! I use convenient Char Siu Sauce.

WHAT IS CHAR SIU

Char Siu known as Chinese BBQ pork, is a type of roasted pork originating from Cantonese cuisine. Traditionally, the marinated pork is skewered with long forks and roasted in an oven or over an open fire. That’s where its Chinese name Char (fork) Siu (roast) comes from.

TO CHOOSE THE PORK

According to traditional recipes, Méi Tóu Róu is the ideal cut of pork for Char Siu. It refers to boneless pork shoulder (aka pork butt/Boston butt) which comes from the upper part of the shoulder from the front leg of the pig. This part of pork has a small amount of fat so it’s not as lean as pork fillet yet not as fatty as pork belly.
For my recipe, I use pork shoulder steaks which are boneless and thin. It takes less time to cook than chunkier pieces and Char Siu Sauce. Also, I find that the marinade penetrates more easily thus the cooked Char Siu becomes tastier.

Roast the Char Siu Pork for 15 mins. Take out and flip it over. Brush some marinade then put back into the oven (Make sure there is always enough water in the tray).Cook for a further 10 mins. While waiting, mix 2 teaspoons of honey with 2 teaspoons of the marinade. Then increase the oven temperature to 460°F/240°C/Fan 220°C. Take out the Char Siu Pork meat. Brush with the honey mixture.
