Smoked Chinese BBQ Pork (Char Siu): 煙燻蜜汁叉燒 (不用焗爐! 在家自製蜜汁叉燒)


森綠的兒子很喜歡吃叉燒,但疫情期間不太敢在外買熟食而且色素也多,孩子們提議自己做,初時覺得不太可能,學著學著便成了。家中當時沒有焗爐便想到可以用煙燻的方法,這樣同時也可以自己加入一些香氣。做法簡單,最重要是調較好叉燒醬,森綠媽媽的醬汁是改良自黃亞保師傅的,很欣賞他的用心。森綠的兩個兒子今次在視頻中也有一起做醃汁和幫忙在豬肉上刺孔,這也可以是一項親子活動啊!以下是我的食譜,做法簡單,希望你們喜歡。

~.~.~.~.~.~Recipe of Chinese BBQ Pork~.~.~.~.~.~

SumLook's sons love Chinese Barbecued Pork. I always thought that it was quite difficult to make it and we don't have an oven so I never thought of trying to make it. Until lately we are always staying home and my sons suggested if we could make Char Siu ourselves that I started to do research how to make it at home. And it came out it wasn't so hard to make it and the most important thing is to get the Char Siu sauce right. Since we don't have an oven at home, I thought about smoking the Char Siu and the outcome was quite good. This recipe is very easy and yummy. I hope you like it.

2. Shallots (3)

Meat:Pork Collar Butt or Pork Shoulder Butt

Materials for smoking:
1. Bar sugar (2 small pieces)
2. White sugar (2 Tbsp)
3. Rice grain (2 Tbsp)
4. Tea leaves(2 Tbsp)
5. Aluminum foil(1 piece)
6. A matel rack
7. Maltose (1 Tbsp)

How to cook:
1. Preparation for Marinade . Char Siu Sauce:
1.1 Add all ingredients (items 1-13, except Honey) into the blender and blend well
1.2 Add Honey into the blended seasonings and mix well
1.3 The marinade is done
2. Use a fork to poke some holes in the pork
3. Soak the meat into the marinade in a zip bag
4. Massage the meat a bit so the meat can be marinaded well
5. Marinade the meat for 1-2 days in the fridge
6. Smoking the BBQ pork
6.1. Lay a piece of aluminum foil onto the frying pan
6.2. Spread bar sugar, rice grain, white sugar and tea leaves onto the aluminum foil
6.3. Put the lid on and heat up the pan with medium low fire
6.4. When there is smoking out, put the rack into the pan and then put the marinaded meat on top of the rack
6.5. Cover with lid and smoke for 15 mins over medium fire
6.6. Flip the meat over and smoke the other side for 15 minutes
6.7. While waiting, use some hot water to warm up the bowl with Maltose in it
6.8. Check if the meat is well cooked
6.9. Spread the melted Maltose over both sides of the BBQ pork
6.10. Smoke for another 2-5 minutes over low fire
7. Now the Chinese BBQ Pork is done!
8. Spread some honey on top when it is served

Personal thought and Tips:
1. The smoking process produces quite some smoke so it would be better to close the door of the kitchen when you are smoking the pork
2. It is more yummy to put honey than maltose on the BBQ pork when it is served
3. If possible, marinade the meat for 2 days, the texture will be much softer 4. Egg can be skipped in the marinade
5. If you don't want to smoke it, just lay a piece of aluminum foil without other ingredients. The effect is very close to baking
6. For smoking, I have tried using dry Osmanthus, the aroma is different and it is quite nice
7. If an oven is used, the procedure and time needed is the same
8. My sons helped me to make the marinade and forking holes in the meat, so this could be a nice activity with kids
