Huli Huli Rotisserie Beef Recipes

ROTISSERIE ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium-high heat. We will be cooking this roast indirectly, so set up your grill accordingly.
• Combine the salt, black pepper, onion powder, and granulated garlic in a small bowl. Season roast liberally with mixture.
• You'll need to create a pilot hole through the center (lengthwise) of the roast. This will help guide the rotisserie rod through. Once you've made the pilot hole and have run the rod through the roast, secure the forks.
• Place the rod onto the rotisserie until on the grill and set the aluminum pan underneath. Fill the pan with hot water, close the lid, and cook the roast for 1 1/2 hours. Check ever so often to make sure the drip pan hasn't gone dry. Add more water if needed. The liquid makes a great jus or gravy once the roast is done.
• I recommend cooking until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F., between medium and medium-rare. Watch for shrinkage as the meat cooks, and adjust the forks if needed.
• Once the roast is cooked, remove from heat with rod and forks still intact. Heat resistant gloves work really well for this job. Place onto a clean wooden cutting board, loosely tent with aluminum foil, and let the meat rest for 20 minutes.
• Carefully loosen forks and remove the rod. Cut into thin slices and use however you wish. Serve topped with gravy and mashed potatoes, or use in sandwiches, salads, and wraps.

HULI HULI CHICKEN

Steps:

• Rinse chicken pieces and pat dry with paper towels. Combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, sherry, ginger, garlic, green onions, and dry mustard in a large resealable plastic bag, stirring the marinade until brown sugar has dissolved. Place chicken pieces into the bag, squeeze out air, seal bag, and lomi (massage) bag to coat chicken with marinade. Refrigerate at least 4 hours to overnight.
• Move an oven rack 6 inches from heat source and preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Remove chicken from marinade and arrange chicken, skin sides up, on a broiler pan.
• Bake chicken in preheated oven until browned on both sides and the juices run clear, turning every 10 minutes, 30 to 45 minutes. Baste with remaining marinade after each turning. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece of chicken, not touching bone, should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

AUTHENTIC HAWAIIAN HULI HULI CHICKEN

Steps:

• Brine chicken: Combine water and soy sauce in large bowl. Heat oil in large saucepan over medium high heat until shimmering. Add garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in soy sauce mixture. Add chicken and refrigerate, covered, for at least one hour or up to eight hours, not longer cuz it will get salty.
• glaze: Combine pineapple juice, sugar, soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, garlic, ginger, and chili garlic sauce in empty saucepan and bring boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until thick and syrupy (you should have about one cup), 20 to 25 minutes.
• Remove chicken from brine and pat dry with paper towels. Arrange chicken skin side up on grill. Grill until well browned not burned, now flip with skin side down, and brown skin until done. Transfer chicken to platter, brush with half of glaze,(other half for dipping) and let rest 5 minutes.

HULI HULI (ROTISSERIE) BEEF

Steps:

• 1. Combine marinade ingredients, massage into roast, and let marinate 15 minutes. Place roast on skewer and secure into rotisserie over hot coals. (don't cover)
• 2. Plan on about 2 hours cooking time. Baste every 10-20 minutes with sweet vermouth, until the last 30 minutes. Then baste about every 5 minutes.
• 3. If you don't have a rotisserie, it can be done in a closed outdoor barbecue system by turning the meat every half hour and basting in the same manner as for the rotisserie method.
• 4. Note: Bottom round or tri-tip roasts can also be used.
