Do-it-yourself! I love exploring my new oven, so today I will be cooking "Char Siu (BBQ Pork Belly)". This is a simple dish, all you need is the right marinate and the perfect grill. First, buy a piece of nice pork belly. I will go for the same butcher , build a good relationship so he will reserve the best part for you (if you are lucky).
Marinate this pork belly for approximately 2 hours, keep it refrigerated then bring it out and keeping it at room temperature at least 30 minutes before putting it in the oven to grill. I set the oven to 280°F and grill for an hour (plus & minus). In between the grilling process, do turn the pork belly every 30 minutes. Whilst grilling, I do apply the sauce that used for marinate for a better coating and it could lock the moist too.
Grilling time varies according to type of ovens
