Basha's had spares on sale a few weeks back, so I had two whole slabs which I trimmed STL style from the freezer. One slab was regular BBQ and I did char siu style on the other.
CHAR SIU MARINADE/SAUCE:
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c soy sauce
1 pressing of garlic
2 T Hoisin
1 T coarse sea salt
1/2 t five spice powder
1/8 t red food coloring
REGULAR BBQ:
Do your own method, you probably don't want my help
The Char Siu is on the bottom.
The skirts, briskets, and other excess meat was trimmed and put in the crock pot for 'carnitas'.
CROCK POT CARNITAS:
1 small onion, sliced
1 can Rotel tomatoes, drained
1 c beef broth
Put these in the bottom of the crock pot then add the pork pieces
1 t @ marjoram, oregano, cumin, and chile powder. S & P to taste. I cooked on high for six hours then shredded. Off to the fridge, I'll skim the fat off the top in the morning.
