The classical Cantonese recipe for Char Sui has quite a few ingredients. If you do not fancy going to that extent, you can get very good ready-made Char Sui marinades from Chinese supermarkets.

Remove any rib bones and slice the meat into half-inch-thick slices.
Bat out with a rolling pin to tenderise and flatten.
Use a fork and stab holes in the meat so that the marinade can be absorbed more quickly.
Mix with the marinade and leave overnight.
Remove from the marinade and pan-fry until cooked.
When cooked, soak the meat in sugar syrup for 30 minutes before slicing.
