Rotisserie Pork Butt - Char Sui Style

Most of the recipes I put on here are I have found from other sites. I try to note that on each one. This one in particular comes from Mike Vrobel's site dadcooksdinner.com. If you haven't checked it out it's a must for anyone grilling, let alone doing rotisserie. See his page for the detailed steps on how to do this properly.

Here we go.

Ingredients:

• 3 -4lb Pork Butt or shoulder

Marinade: (Be sure to save a few table spoons for the glaze)

• 1 cup soy sauce
• 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 4 cloves garlic, minced I use the jarred pre-minced garlic
• 2 inch piece of ginger, I also use the jarred pre-minced ginger
• 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp sesame oil

Glaze

• 2 tbsp reserved marinade (or 2 tbsp soy sauce)
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce

Directions :
Day before or at least 3 - 4 hours before

1. Marinate the pork - put the pork in a ziploc with the marinade in the fridge overnight

Time to cook:

1. Take the pork out and let it rest
2. Setup your grill for Rotisserie - back infared on high, side burners on med-high (400 degrees)
3. Tie up the pork in a tube - see photo
4. Skewer it and put it on your grill for about 30 minutes - should be starting to char on the most exposed parts
5. Turn of the back infared burner or turn down your grill to medium
6. Let cook for about another hour at about 250 degrees
7. Bast the pork with the glaze for the last 30 minutes - 2 - 3 times
8. Be careful the sugar in the glaze can burn if it's too hot
9. You can cook this on low for a while longer to get it more tender
10. let it rest for 5 - 10 minutes before carving
