CHAR SIU (CHINESE BBQ PORK)
"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.

Steps:
- Cut pork with the grain into strips 1 1/2- to 2-inches long; put into a large resealable plastic bag.
- Stir soy sauce, honey, ketchup, brown sugar, rice wine, hoisin sauce, red food coloring or red bean curd (see Cook's Note), and Chinese five-spice powder together in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir until just combined and slightly warm, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the marinade into the bag with the pork, squeeze air from the bag, and seal. Turn bag a few times to coat all pork pieces in marinade.
- Marinate pork in refrigerator, 2 hours to overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove pork from marinade and shake to remove excess liquid. Discard remaining marinade.
- Cook pork on preheated grill for 20 minutes. Put a small container of water onto the grill and continue cooking, turning the pork regularly, until cooked through, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

GLAZED PORK
This grilled (or broiled) slab of pork resembles Chinese roast pork. It is a vital component of arroz gordo, a dish from Macau. But it can easily stand on its own. Just be sure the meat is at least 2 inches thick so it will brown nicely without overcooking. Slice it to serve as an appetizer with strong mustard, or add it at the last minute to stir-fried mushrooms. You could substitute pork loin for the shoulder.

Steps:
- In a bowl, combine your spices (paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt).
- Rub the pork chops in the spices generously.
- Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium/high heat. When the oil is hot, add the pork chops. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until they have a nice caramelized brownness to them. Once you feel that they are looking browned, add a Tablespoon of brown sugar to each pork chop. Turn each pork chop over, so both sides get some melted brown sugar. (Don't add the brown sugar too early or else the sugar will burn and smoke up the room.)
- Bake at 350˚F (175˚C) for 15 minutes, making sure the pork chops are cooked through.
- Before serving, pour the glaze that's formed in the pan over the chops. Serve with your vegetables of choice.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cut the pork into long strips or chunks about 2 to 3 inches thick. Don't trim any excess fat, as it will render off and add flavor.
- Combine the sugar, salt, five spice powder, white pepper, sesame oil, wine, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, molasses, food coloring (if using), and garlic in a bowl to make the marinade (i.e. the BBQ sauce).
- Reserve about 2 tablespoons of marinade and set it aside. Rub the pork with the rest of the marinade in a large bowl or baking dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 8 hours. Cover and store the reserved marinade in the fridge as well.
- Preheat your oven to 'bake' at 475 F (246 C) with a rack positioned in the upper third of the oven. (If you only have a convection oven, keep in mind the oven not only heats more quickly, your char siu will roast faster than what we have described here). It's amazing how oven temperatures can vary-from model to model, in different spots in the oven, and in how ovens pre-heat and maintain heat. Using an oven thermometer to double-check the actual oven temperature is a great safeguard to monitor your food (I say double-check because even oven thermostat calibrations vary and can sometimes be incorrect). Regardless, be sure to check your char siu every 10 minutes, reducing or increasing the temperature as needed.
- Line a sheet pan with foil and place a metal rack on top. Using the metal rack keeps the pork off of the pan and allows it to roast more evenly, like it does in commercial ovens described above. Place the pork on the rack, leaving as much space as possible between pieces. Pour 1 ½ cups water into the pan below the rack. This prevents any drippings from burning or smoking.
- Transfer the pork to your preheated oven. Roast for 25 minutes, keeping the oven setting at 475 F for the first 10 minutes of roasting, and then reduce your oven temperature to 375 F (190 C). After 25 minutes, flip the pork. If the bottom of the pan is dry, add another cup of water. Turn the pan 180 degrees to ensure even roasting. Roast another 15 minutes. Throughout the roasting time, check your char siu often (every 10 minutes) and reduce the oven temperature if it looks like it is burning!
- Meanwhile, combine the reserved marinade with the maltose or honey (maltose is very viscous--you can heat it up in the microwave to make it easier to work with) and 1 tablespoon hot water. This will be the sauce you'll use for basting the pork.
- After 40 minutes of total roasting time, baste the pork, flip it, and baste the other side as well. Roast for a final 10 minutes.
- By now, the pork has cooked for 50 minutes total. It should be cooked through and caramelized on top. If it's not caramelized to your liking, you can turn the broiler on for a couple minutes to crisp the outside and add some color/flavor. Be sure not to walk away during this process, since the sweet char siu BBQ sauce can burn if left unattended. You can also use a meat thermometer to check if the internal temperature of the pork has reached 160 degrees F. (Update: USDA recommends that pork should be cooked to 145 degrees F with a 3 minute resting time)
- Remove from the oven and baste with the last bit of reserved BBQ sauce. Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing, and enjoy!

CHINESE STYLE GLAZED LOIN OF PORK
This recipe is a combination of several recipes I found in a Chinese cookbook for a marinated loin of pork. You can also use pork tenderloin. I sliced a loin of pork roast across, making 4 slabs about 1/2 inch thick. Prep time includes marinating time, which can be anywhere from 1/2 hour to 4 hours.

Steps:
- Slice pork into 4 slabs and place in a large zip lock bag.
- Mix the rest of the ingredients and pour half into zip bag with the meat, smoosh around and allow to marinate for 1/2 to 4 hours.
- Pour the rest of the glaze into a small saucepan and cook until thickened.
- Sear meat on a grill or in a hot grill pan on the stove about 5 minutes per side.
- I added the liquid smoke to the glaze, because I cooked mine on the stove top in the grill pan.
- Brush both sides of meat with glaze and turn, cooking until no pink shows.
- Continue brushing with glaze until done.
- In the stovetop grill pan, I poured all the glaze into the pan and turned the meat every couple of minutes to coat completely, and cooked until no pink showed in the meat. This only takes a couple of minutes, since the meat is thin.
- Serve with fried rice and broccoli.

Steps:
- Mix together the sake, water, soy sauce, sugar, green onions and ginger in a large pot.
- Halve or quarter the pork belly into large, manageable pieces.
- Transfer the pork belly pieces to the pot. Bring to just under a boil, but do not boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer poach slowly on the stove (alternatively, you can use an oven at 300 degrees F) until tender, about 2 hours 30 minutes.
- Check for tenderness by piercing the middle of each piece. When tender, allow to cool in the liquid for 2 hours off the heat, then transfer to the refrigerator to completely rest overnight in the liquid.
- The next day, remove the pork belly from the liquid and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Warm the pork belly with a bit of sauce and serve as a topping for Spicy Miso Ramen with the various garnishes. Serve 2 slices per person.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork loin. Look for a loin that is about 2 to 3 pounds in weight and has a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the pork loin is juicy and flavorful.
- Make sure the pork loin is cooked to the proper internal temperature. The USDA recommends cooking pork to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This will help to ensure that the pork is safe to eat and that it is still moist and tender.
- Use a good quality chasu glaze. The chasu glaze is what gives the pork loin its signature flavor. Make sure to use a glaze that is made with high-quality ingredients and that has a good balance of sweet, savory, and salty flavors.
- Let the pork loin rest before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Chasu glazed pork loin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover pork loin, and it can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook pork loin, then this chasu glazed pork loin recipe is definitely worth trying.
