A search for 燒味 on words.hk returns no page. The 白切雞 example already uses the word: on the elder sister’s birthday, the mother buys a whole 白切雞 from a 燒味舖 to mark it. In that sentence 燒味舖 is marked siu1 mei2, and 舖 is pou2. to-jyutping also gives siu1 mei2 for 燒味. The character 味 has the candidates mei6, mei2 and mei1. This example uses mei2. 燒臘 and 滷味 have no entries either. Their definitions are not filled in here.

叉燒 has its own entry, caa1 siu1. The explanation calls it a kind of Cantonese siu mei: 脢頭 pork held on a fork and roasted. The measures are 嚿 or 斤. 脢頭 itself has no entry. to-jyutping gives mui4 tau2. The example asks someone to chop a catty of 叉燒 on the way home, because relatives are coming for dinner. 斤 in that sentence is gan1.

words.hk splits the fat into two entries. There is no 半肥瘦. 瘦叉 sau3 caa1 is cha siu with less fat. Its antonym is 肥叉. 肥叉 fei4 caa1 is cha siu with more fat, and the antonym points back to 瘦叉. If the window uses some other cut, these two pages do not record it.

The 油雞 entry, jau4 gai1, is short. It is the abbreviated name of 豉油雞, and the skin is dyed brown by the soy. The measures are 隻, 嚿 or 塊. The variant form is 油鷄. 豉油雞 si6 jau4 gai1 reverses the order: chicken seasoned in soy, usually shortened to 油雞, and counted as siu mei. Its variant is 豉油鷄. Both entries read 雞 as gai1. 豉 on this entry is si6.

白切雞 baak6 cit3 gai1 is a method: the whole bird is boiled, then cut. The English gloss calls it a type of siu mei, usually served with ginger and scallion. The measures are 隻 or 嚿. Char siu bao from a teahouse steamer is not this 叉燒 entry. See dim sum.

斬件 zaam2 gin2 is a verb, to chop a large piece of food into smaller pieces. The example is the soy-sauce chicken: 「隻油雞幫我斬件。」 The same entry has a second sense, breaking a plan or a problem into parts, which has nothing to do with the window. As a measure word, 件 has its own entry at gin6, and the collocations include 一盅兩件. The 斬件 entry uses gin2. to-jyutping offers the same two candidates for the character, gin6 and gin2.

Names called at the window, with no entry, are given only as to-jyutping. 燒肉 siu1 juk6. 燒鵝 siu1 ngo2. 燒鴨 siu1 aap3. The character 鵝 has the candidates ngo4 and ngo2, and also o4 and o2 with the initial dropped. For the word 燒鵝 the converter gives ngo2. 乳豬 jyu5 zyu1. 叉燒飯 caa1 siu1 faan6. 油雞飯 jau4 gai1 faan6. 打包 daa2 baau1. 飯底 faan6 dai2. These pages do not say in which kind of shop the names turn up. The 燒味 named inside the wet-market explanation is in the wet market.
