Ingredients

4 servings

2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp hoisin
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp Shaoxing wine (optional)
2 cloves garlic (lightly smashed)
1 inch ginger (sliced)
1/2 tsp five spice (optional)
1/4 tsp white pepper (optional)
2 tbsp honey (for glaze)
1 lb pork butt/shoulder (cut into strips)

Steps

Mix the marinade ingredients throughly. Coat the pork with the sauce and marinate for minimum 1 hour and up to 24.
When ready to cook, heat the oven to 300°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with tinfoil. Remove the pork from the marinade, shaking off excess. Lay the pork on a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 1 hour, flipping halfway through.
While the pork is cooking, heat up the remaining marinade (remove the ginger and garlic) with the last 2 tablespoons of honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat until it reduces and thickens slightly. It should coat the back of a spoon.
Brush the pork with the glaze and turn the heat up to 400°F, brushing with glaze and flipping, until slightly charred. Let rest slightly, slice and enjoy!
