"Dongpo meat" is a dish named after Su Dongpo. Su Dongpo is a famous poet in the Northern Song Dynasty of our country. He has deep attainments in poetry and calligraphy, and is also very knowledgeable in cooking dishes. He can cook dishes himself, and He is very good at roasting meat, and many of his famous poems have content about diet, such as "Eating Pork", "Old Gourmet Fu", "Ding Gongmo Sending Cuttlefish", "Bean Congee", "Geng" and other poems, All reflect his keen interest in food and cooking.

"Dongpo Meat" was first made by Su Dongpo in Huangzhou. At that time, he wrote the method of roasting meat in the poem "Eating Pork": "Huangzhou is good pork, the price is as cheap as dung, and the rich refuse to eat it. The poor can’t decipher it. Slowly catch the fire and lack water. When the fire is full, it is beautiful. Come and make a bowl every morning, and you will be satisfied with your own Lord." But this dish had no name at the time, so it was named "Dong". Po Rou" was when he went to Hangzhou to be the prefect. At that time, most of the West Lake had been obliterated by grasses. After he took office, he organized migrant workers to eradicate grasses, dredge the lake lanes, build embankments and build bridges, which restored the appearance of the West Lake and added scenic spots. The people in Hangzhou are very grateful to him. Hearing that he usually likes to eat braised pork in brown sauce, many people come to deliver pork by appointment. After he received a lot of pork, he asked his family to cut the meat into cubes, add seasoning and wine, and use his cooking method to simmer it into braised pork, which was distributed to the migrant workers who participated in the dredging of the West Lake. After everyone ate it, they praised the crispy and delicious meat, fat but not greasy, so people named the roasted meat "Dongpo meat" after his name. Later, this dish spread and became a traditional delicacy well-known both at home and abroad."
