I just got myself a Weber charcoal grill and I’m gonna make char siu next week.

Wow! 😍😍😍😍 Char siu is my favorite of all them BBQ styles and flavors, and I make it a lot at home in the oven. I have been wanting to try it on the grill, or possibly smoking it too, and I admittedly don’t have the right equipment to smoke meat in, however, this video has convinced me that I need to make an investment in a smoker to make smoked char siu! Thank you for this lovely video!♥️♥️

Why are there two holes running through the final product? Was this displayed pork actually hung on a hook or skewer to cook and then just used as a demo? I don't think that a thermometer would leave such marks... BTW, 160 might be too high - we don't want any dry pork!

I usually aim for around 162 dg...there's always some carry over heat that will raise it a few after you take it off the heat.

Just what I needed, cooking times and temperatures for a kettle barbecue. Anybody ever use straw for smoke. An old friend, master of cha siu said that straw was the best smoke for this dish. I am going to try it tomorrow.

Okay, I wet the straw, wrung it out and then put a handful on each of my briquette piles. It smoked for about 2 hours from the one addition! Interestingly it cooled the coals down so that I had no trouble staying below 250 which I sometimes find challenging on the Weber Kettle. The straw smoke was mild flavoured but very complimentary to the Char Siu. I will definitely use it again. Exceeded my expectations.

great great question. This was a technical dive on the method into getting us to 165 dg. I really wanted to keep it simple with 1 ingredient. I've had Tien Tien Hainan in Hong Kong Central and their chicken was super sweet and soft. In a future video i would totally add the ginger, spring onion, garlic, salt/sugar/brown sugar maybe even rock sugar for the chicken seasoning. So many options for us.

Raymond that is a great question! The entire bird is 165 dg which by FDA standards is safe to eat.. I have found in recent cooks that stand alone drumsticks remain bloody through 169/170 dg. So here is our chicken conundrum...how do we get white meat to reach 165 and dark meat to hit 170 dg? I'm devising another cook in the making with a possible solution....

that's a great question. They appear to be regular wood from the packaging. I'd imagine someone would make sure they are dry enough to burn. I will test out next time to see if they are burnable enough to be a firestarter in itself!

How is dry aged steak different in taste & texture?
@aDashOfUmami
4 жыл бұрын
The taste becomes a little sweeter close to the same as a good Jamón/prosciutto. Texturally the short 28 day dry age tenderizes the meat. This was a super long one so it's a bit dryer...
