“Char” doesn’t translate to charred, rather “char siu” literally means fork roast – ‘Char’ meaning fork and siu being roast. The traditional cooking method for Chinese BBQ Pork was skewering long strips of seasoned pork with long-twined forks and placed over a fire, much like roasting a hot dog. We grilled a thoroughly marinated pork roast over indirect charcoal in the Big Green Egg. Our marinade features the Radd Cooking twist, the addition of a few tablespoons of Bayern Brewing’s Amber Ale and Sriracha for some pleasant tingling heat.
