Char Shu Pork is a delicious and popular way to flavour and prepare barbecued pork traditionally cooked in Cantonese restaurants. This recipe uses a shoulder cut of pork and seasoned with honey, five-spice powder, red fermented bean curd, dark soy sauce, and hoisin sauce. These seasonings turn the exterior layer of the meat dark red with a shiny glaze during the barbecue process.
