Smokydave Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 One of my favorite things to cook on the KK is Char Siu Pork. I stopped at Costco earlier in the week and bought 12lbs of boned shoulder. Cut into 2 inch steaks and marinated with soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice wine vinegar, cooking sherry, garlic, Chinese five spice, onion, siracha, and probably one or two other things to throw in just because.... It's 21 degrees out and the wind is blowing 20-25 mph. I'm struggling to keep the temp stable because of the wind and I don't have anything to make a shield right now as we recently moved. The old location had a fence on 2 sides so it kept some of the wind out. I ran out of decent smoking wood so I just placed an order with Fruita Wood for some hickory and post oak. I had some maple that's not the best, but it will have to do, so I'm using that. Oh, I forgot, there a small boneless ham in there with the char siu. I didn't want it to get lonely! Hopefully I won't forget to post pics of the money shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Smokydave, so far that cook is looking very interesting and tasty. I sure hope you remember to do the plated shot. I'm looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) Great start. I've made Char Siu Pork once before and stuffed it into a soft, baked, bun which made it Char Siu Bao. Yes please remember the plated shot. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT Edited February 13, 2016 by ckreef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokydave Posted February 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I cooked for about 5 1/2 hours. Cranked it up to about 300 for the last 1/2 hour to put the glaze on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
