Chinese BBQ
 
Anyone have good recipes? I'm looking at making everything..char siew, siu yuk, chicken and duck! Also how do I make the sweet soy that the BBQ places serve for the rice :okay: stuff like this makes me feel so white

You can buy sweet soy sauce from tnt.

SkinnyPupp 09-13-2012 09:57 PM

I doubt you could make it taste as good as restaurants... In fact not a lot of restaurants make REALLY good chinese bbq

Who else is hungry after seeing that home made Chinese bbq pork and roast pork?

TOPEC 09-14-2012 03:46 PM

my mom uses "ng fa lam"(pork belly part i think) instead of the the actual cha siu part to make cha siu, it a lot more tender and juicy

impulseX 09-14-2012 05:14 PM

alright alright. someone needs to share a recipe now!

kcl38 09-14-2012 05:30 PM

Took a shot at it yesterday/today. I made some meat hooks out of paper clips so I could hang it in my oven to cook. Recipe I used was pretty good but turned out a bit too sweet

hey etodac:

i don't have a recipe no more cuase it's just second nature to me.
these are not my pics below.. cause i rarely take pics during the process.
for the cha siu.
1) get it from T&T and it's pork's BUTT. 1.99 on special. get the biggest one.
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3l6P7t5Lvs...ot+bbq+003.jpg
2) dark soya sauce + light + salt and pepper. general rule 1 lbs = 1 *dinner spoon of salt + 3 dinner spoons of sugar
3) take it out to BBQ and BBQ it until it's osmething like this (not a smoker) but after BBQ it should look like this brown / dark
http://bbqnewengland.com/blog1/wp-co...11/01/pork.jpg
* it will NOT BE DONE at all cause it's still rare inside.
4) then you slice it like this
http://i854.photobucket.com/albums/a...ButtRoast7.jpg
a) SLICE them into THICK pieces
b) slice it 4/5 the way (so it's still connected on the bottom and re-bbq them.
5) final minutes you put on CHA SIU sauce on it nad glace it with honey

key to success, add osme cha siu sauce and add honey and add any other bbq sauce and hot sauce it give it unique taste.

Today's experiment: home made siu yuk!

Skin so crispy its almost too much :badpokerface: 6793026 how did you get it so crackly? That piece looks like it almost doesn't have the skin on anymore

unit 09-21-2012 03:18 PM

i made carnitas this week.
basically just braised then roasted pork shoulder.

cut into large cubes, salt liberally, hour at 375 with 1/3rd cup water in medium sized bakeware tightly sealed with tin foil.

then crank to 450 and turn it every 10m till all the water is gone, careful not to overbrown it on any sides.

then shred it with forks and serve as meat for tacos. really good and cheap as well.

What about the siu yook? Did google, any tips and tricks?

6793026 09-21-2012 11:15 PM

OH siu yok is epic easy.
* not my pics..
BOIL the piece of pork belly with tons of salt.
http://aknifeswork.com/wp-content/up...k1-390x384.jpg

once done. let it it dry... DRY it for hours.
then use a nice paper towel and wipe the skin(on top) dry. then use a fork, and POKE THE SHIT OUT OF IT.

set on Broil, set on top rack. it will bubble.

again, i have years of experience doing this, it does tons of trial and error. it's NOT hard to make it crack with the crispy skin. the KEY to success is
1) Marinade it really salty cause when you boil it it loses favor
2) you will notice when you go out and eat, they "pre-cut" sections and marinade the shit out of it.

it's hard ot explain but they score the meat side and put a lot of seasoning.

lastly, keep trying till you succeed.
