Barbecued Pork Chinese Style

This recipe comes from dorothy huang, who is a local chef and cookbook author. I think it makes a wonderful barbecued pork that tastes like the best chinese restaurant's! You can slice the pork into 2 inch by 1/8 inch pieces and serve hot, or cold as part of a chinese cold plate. Prep time does not include marinating time.

Steps

Trim fat off pork and cut meat into pieces about the size of pork chops , 3 / 4 inch thick.

Combine the marinade ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.

Dip each piece of pork into the marinade to coat well.

Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

Place pork pieces on a barbecue grill over medium heat and barbecue for about 30 minutes or until fully cooked , turning once or twice while cooking.

During the last 10 minutes , baste with the marinade.

Line a roasting pan with foil and add some water to prevent smoking.

Put the pan on the lower rack.

Place the pork on the upper rack , 3 inches from the heat source.

Broil pork pieces 2 minutes on each side.

Brush with marinade.

Reduce heat to 350f and roast for 30 minutes.

Divide leftover pork into 4-ounce packages and freeze.
