How to Make Barbecued Pork Chinese Style
- Trim excess fat from 2 lbs pork loin and cut into 3/4-inch thick chops.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients (see below).
- Add pork chops to the marinade, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill pork chops for 15 minutes per side, or until cooked through, basting with remaining marinade during the last 5 minutes.
- Alternatively, for oven cooking: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a roasting pan with foil and add 1/2 cup of water to the bottom to prevent smoking. Place a rack inside the pan.
- Place the marinated pork chops on the rack. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C), basting occasionally with marinade.
- For extra char, broil for 2 minutes per side during the last few minutes of cooking.
- Once cooked, let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing into 2" x ⅛" pieces.
- Serve hot or cold. Leftovers can be stored in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen in 4-ounce portions for later use.
