Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 1/2 pounds pork shoulder
  • 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
  • 2 teaspoon Chinese five spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 2 tablespoon mirin

Instruction

  • Cut the pork shoulder into 2-3" by 8" strips. 
  • Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl. Add the pork strips and mix to coat the pork with the marinade. Place in the fridge for 24 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. 
  • Place pork on a rack over a baking sheet (line with aluminum for easier cleanup). Pour enough water in the bottom of the baking sheet to cover the surface, but not enough that it touches the pork.
  • Microwave the marinade for about 2 minutes (until simmering) to kill any bacteria. Use to baste the pork (see below).
  • Cook for 20 minutes. Remove and flip the pork over. Baste with sauce and cook for another 20 minutes. 
  • Baste again and cook for about 5 minutes, or until sizzling and caramelized on the outside.
  • Remove from heat, baste one last time, and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice with a cleaver or sharp knife and serve.
