Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1/3 cup of soy sauce, 4 tablespoons of brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of dry sherry, and 3 tablespoons of catsup. Stir in 1 minced garlic clove and 1 teaspoon of freshly minced ginger. Mix well until the sugar is fully dissolved and all ingredients are well blended.
-
Grill and Baste: Prepare your pork for grilling. Once the grill is hot, use a brush to generously baste the pork with the sauce. Grill the pork as desired, basting frequently with the sauce to build up a flavorful glaze. This method ensures that the pork remains juicy and absorbs the rich flavors of the barbecue sauce.
-
Final Touches: After the final basting, let the pork cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. This final step allows the sauce to caramelize slightly, enhancing the flavor and creating a deliciously sticky coating on the meat.
Serving Suggestions:
This versatile sauce pairs beautifully with a variety of pork cuts, including ribs, chops, and tenderloin. Serve the glazed pork with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
