GrillingMontana Posted February 18, 2015 Report Posted February 18, 2015 I have made this before from scratch to the best of what research I had available. This time, I grabbed a few packets of Char Siu marinade from the big W that looked Asian and somewhat authentic. Taking 2.5# of tenderloin and slicing it into long, thin strips was all I did other than adding the marinade powder to the zip top bag. It rested overnight. Then- raised direct at about 375F Getting some char-color Switched to direct and opened the vents and a couple of plated pics- Instant classic at my place- Thanks for looking! P- 2
CeramicChef Posted February 18, 2015 Report Posted February 18, 2015 Montana - I understand how that is an instant classic at your place. It'll be an instant classic at my place too when I cook it for SWMBOI! Nicely done and kudos to you! Thanks for the inspiration!

Funny how making dishes like this can resonate so much emotion. Have had leftovers now twice already and I just want to keep this on hand for funzies going forward. On to the next experiment!

Super flattering of you to say, but in reality I am in a photo "composition" class at the school of evening learning and submitted some plated pictures for my assignment. Cheers- P 1

Me thinks the game is afoot. Montana, I used to be in higher Ed and for this assignment, I give you an A+! How do you lose in this game? Photography, cooking, and having to eat your subjects! Nice catch, tony!
