Directions

1Make the char siu sauce by combining sugar, honey, fermented bean curd (or miso paste), soy sauce, salt, five-spice powder, grated garlic, and red yeast powder (or red food coloring).
2Stir the mixture over medium-low heat until the liquid reduces and the texture becomes syrup-like.
3Thicken the sauce with a mixture of tapioca starch and water.
4Cut the boneless pork shoulder into 1 1/2 inch thick slabs, make cuts in the middle without cutting all the way through.
5Poke holes in the pork with a fork.
6Drizzle Chinese cooking wine over the pork and rub it in.
7Pat the pork dry with paper towels.
8Add the char siu sauce to the pork, mix thoroughly, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
9Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
10Place the marinated pork on a baking rack and roast for 20 minutes.
11Brush the extra sauce on the roasted pork.
12Bake for another 20 minutes.
13Brush a thin layer of honey on the pork.
14Bake for another 5-10 minutes, until the meat is beautifully charred.
