This classic Char Siu recipe creates tender, juicy Chinese barbecued pork with a signature red-hued glaze and perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. The pork is marinated in a fragrant mixture of hoisin, five-spice, and other traditional ingredients before being roasted until caramelized on the outside while remaining succulent inside. Perfect for serving with rice, in noodle soups, or stuffed in bao buns, this versatile Cantonese specialty delivers authentic Chinese flavor with simple preparation and basic ingredients.
