Instructions
- Add all the ingredients for the Chinese BBQ Pork Sauce to a saucepan and heat on low. Stir to combine well. The sauce is ready when it thickens and becomes sticky (yielding about 1/2 cup). Transfer it to a bowl and let it cool.
- Rub the garlic onto the pork. Add 2/3 of the sauce to marinate the pork for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Mix the cooking oil with the remaining sauce and store it in the fridge.
- The next day, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place the pork on the baking tray, shaking off any excess sauce before roasting. Roast for 20 minutes.
- Remove the pork from the oven and let it cool. Thread the pork pieces onto metal skewers. Brush the remaining char siu sauce over the pork and grill them over an outdoor fire or on a gas cooktop. If you don't have access to an outdoor grill or gas cooktop, you can use the broil function on your oven. Broil each side of the pork for about 1 minute, or until slightly charred.
- Slice the Chinese BBQ pork into bite-sized pieces, drizzle the remaining sauce over the top, and serve immediately with steamed white rice.
