CHAR SIU (CHINESE BBQ PORK)



Char Siu (Chinese BBQ Pork) image

"Char siu" literally means "fork roast" - "char" being "fork" (both noun and verb) and "siu" being "roast" - after the traditional cooking method for the dish: long strips of seasoned boneless pork are skewered with long forks and placed in a covered oven or over a fire. This is best cooked over charcoal, but it's important to cook with indirect heat.

ASIAN BARBECUED PORK TENDERLOIN



Asian Barbecued Pork Tenderloin image

Based on a recipe from Marlene Koch's book, Fantastic Food with Splenda. She says in its intro, "Hoisin is a thick, sweet, spicy condiment used extensively in Asian cuisine. In addition to being spread on pancakes for mu shu pork, it is used for delicious stir-fry barbecue sauces like this one." She also offers this tip: "Hoisin is made from soybeans, chilies, garlic, ginger, and sugar. Brands vary quite a bit from one to another. It should be very dark and have a complex flavor. Koon Chun is one preferred brand." Prep and cook times do not include the marinating time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder is the best cut for barbecue because it is well-marbled and flavorful. Pork loin is also a good choice, but it is leaner and may dry out more easily.
  • Make sure the pork is well-trimmed: Remove any excess fat from the pork before cooking. This will help the pork cook evenly and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the pork its flavor, so make sure it is packed with delicious ingredients. Some good options include soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and scallions.
  • Cook the pork over indirect heat: This will help the pork cook evenly and prevent it from burning. If you are using a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side and place the pork on the opposite side. If you are using a gas grill, turn off one side of the burners and place the pork on the unlit side.
  • Cook the pork until it is tender: The pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the temperature with a meat thermometer.
  • Let the pork rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Asian barbecue pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed on its own or as part of a larger meal. It is perfect for parties and potlucks, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook pork, give this Asian barbecue pork recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
