How do I make real Chinese BBQ pork at home?

You know that moment, don’t you? You’re walking past a Cantonese restaurant, and through the window, you see them: glistening, mahogany-red strips of pork hanging in a neat row. The edges are perfectly caramelized, almost blackened in spots, and you can practically taste that sweet, savory, smoky flavor just by looking at it. That, my friend, is Char Siu, or Chinese BBQ pork.
