Dongpo pork is a delicious pork dish created by Su Shi when he was the deputy envoy of the Youth League Training in Huangzhou. In the Song Dynasty, although the consumption of pork was very large, its position in meat was not high. It was a dietary fashion in the Song Dynasty that expensive sheep were cheap pigs.

Su Shi "likes pigs", and after arriving in Huangzhou, he found that "Huangzhou is good pork, and the price is as low as dirt. You refuse to eat, but the poor don't know how to cook. "After practice, he created a method of cooking pork on a small fire:" Wash it in a pan, and there is less water. The firewood can't afford to smoke, so don't rush him when he is ripe, and he will be beautiful when the temperature is enough. " This practice spread and became the "Dongpo Meat" that became famous all over the world.
