Chinese BBQ Pork

Chinese BBQ Pork, also known as Char Siu, is a popular Cantonese dish made from marinated pork that is roasted or grilled over an open flame. The marinade typically includes hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice wine, and five-spice powder. The pork is then cooked until the outside is charred and the inside is juicy and tender. Char Siu is often served in Chinese restaurants as an appetizer or main course, and can also be used as an ingredient in other dishes, such as fried rice or noodles.
