CHINESE BARBECUED PORK RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat Oven To 350.
• Combine soy sauce, wine, sugar, honey, food coloring, cinnamon and garlic in a large bowl.
• Add meat to marinade making sure it is coated with marinade.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour, overnight is better turning meat occasionally.
• Place meat on a wire rack over a baking pan along with marinade.
• Bake 45 minutes turning and basting frequently with marinade.
• Let meat rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

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).
