Pics: Char Siu Pork Belly | Cookshack

andyjMember

How about we go Asian with some Char Siu. Picked up a package of some sliced pork belly at the store a week or so ago.

Mixed up a Char Siu marinade using basically this recipe below. I added a bunch more fresh garlic, fresh ginger, sesame oil and some oyster sauce that I found were listed in other recipes.

Few hours in the fridge to marinate. Kept about 3/4 cup for the glaze and added more honey to it.

Indirect on the Big Joe for a while to render out some of that fat...

Can't have Char Siu without any char...
Got the hot side going. Should work just fine on a FEPG as well...

It's a fine line between char & burnt, so be careful. Especially since the glaze & marinade has honey & brown sugar in it. Glaze & flip often. Only takes a few minutes for this part, don't walk away!!!

And they're done... That was some goood eatin'...

Thanks for looking.

That looks absolutely wonderful, Andy. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. Can you recommend a soy?

I just grabbed a bottle from my local asian store. This one was Kimlan brand from Taiwan. Think it was three bucks for a good size bottle.

The problem with publishing a cookbook is that I don't follow the same recipe twice.
