Hi, I’m very new to cooking and just tried this recipe. Tastewise it was very good , but on my own part I made a mistake in not removing the skin before roasting and marinating. As a result, the meat was covered with very tough skin. Is this a general rule when dealing with pork? thus far the meat i have cooked has always been skinned so something new to me.

Just found your website and browsed the other day. Bought all the ingredients I needed for a couple of dish I selected. Then marinated pork butt for 2 days and it turned out very delicious. Followed the recipe as it was written. However, the only things that I didn’t follow was the maltose. I can’t seem to find it, so I just doubled the honey. Used Chinese Rice Wine instead of the Chinese rose wine. My family loved it, and it was worth cooking it. Thanks Bee for sharing this …

Thank you for the leads. I didn’t know 99 Ranch was in the Bay Area. I was raised with my grandmother getting this for me everytime I stayed with her in Oakland. I’ve cooked and eaten over 10# of versions of this recipe in the last 2 months trying to find the best. I almost get withdrawls now if I don’t get some weekly… I suspect yours is going to be the winner.
