Cuisines have different versions around the world. This is true even for a simple treat like jerky. Of course, it would be interesting if you will get to know its Chinese counterpart. But more than that, it would be a great thing if you will know how to make one. Specifically, the Chinese people pride their pork jerky, also known as Bak Kwa.

Try this simple recipe! You're going to love it!!
