    Char siu is an ancient Cantonese pork-roasting technique featuring long strips of meat marinated in a spicy-sweet sauce. It’s a common cold-case item in Asian supermarkets, but this version blows that clamshell-encased piggy right out of the water. Think tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat, slowly cooked sous vide to develop incredible flavor and texture, then quickly finished on the grill for a hit of smoke and char.

    I live in South-East Asia and yes when you make the sauce from the marinade from scratch it is really at another level .
    I can also suggest to make much smaller pieces of meat (at least 2 or 3 times smaller ) it will improve the flavour as you will see the marinade going deeper in the meat . Here they usually cut 1 / 1.5 inches slices with the same thickness as in the video and you can really see the colouring of the marinade that went much deeper in the meat it is not just an outer corona .
    Fabulous dish .

      Sous vides is overrated IMO. I cook cuts like that all the time on the grill and an extra 5min on indirect heat will still leave the meat cooked and juicy inside without all the hullabaloo with the water circulator.

    For thosegiving CS grief for using a bottled sauce, their recipe page at www.chefsteps.com/activities/char-siu-tender-cantonese-style-barbecued-pork explains why: "We tend to mix up our own marinades in the ChefSteps kitchen, but we were such fans of the results we got with Lee Kum Kee’s Char Siu Sauce (available on Amazon) that we decided a little shortcut was in order. Keep a bottle of that delicious stuff on hand, and you will have a foolproof centerpiece dish that requires very little effort but will still be the star of the potluck, book club gathering, or tailgate. Stress-free and totally tasty? See, this is why we fell in love with the whole sous vide thing in the first place."
    I made ATK's 12 ingredient Chinese barbecued pork recipe several times and CS' two ingredient recipe last night (I left out the salt), and I wholeheartedly agree with CS: Lee Kum Kee’s Char Siu Sauce is just as good as homemade.

    Not necessarily traditional, the best char siew ive had in Asia is a lot more fatty, the outside is coated with a sugary bqq sauce while cooking, so it's crispy on the outside from the sugar, extremely tender on the inside, the fatty parts just melts in your mouth. The glacé is super flavorful too.

    Feel like Grant not confident in this video.
    1. Yes. Agree with the 'char siew' that you make is more tender and juicy but hope you try the original char siew before.
    2. Normaly chinese will not serve char siew with lime or lemon, some of us will serve it with plum sauce. Mustard is still acceptable.
    3. The sauce that you use to marinated not enough for that 2 big whole pork. If you using that to support your marinate or to enhance flavour is ok.
    4. Original char siew will using lot of sugar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, some support aroma ingredian like spring onion garlic as well and marinate over night.
    Just from my view. Not to say you are wrong because different people have different way to cook the food.

    Because of subbing to your channel for so many years, I broke down and bought a sous vide machine. I'm single with no kids and hardly eat, so it didn't seem necessary. However, I wanted to be a cheapskate and bought it off Wish. It came 3 months later after I spent $40USD with a Norwegian or Scandinavian plug. Walmart maybe had an adapter for mo $ that may or may not have worked. So now I have a European piece of junk that cost me over a hundred bucks, I wish I would have just bought a juel when I first started subscribing to your channel
