Bachan's Japanese Barbecue Sauce - Original, 17 Oz Bottle, Cold-Filled, Non GMO, No Preservatives, Vegan and BPA free - BBQ Sauce for Wings, Chicken, Beef, Pork, Seafood, Noodle Recipes, and More

I've tried so many different things to marinate my chicken with. I eat it about five times a week so I'm always looking for something to change it up a little. I've tried using soy sauce I tried balsamic vinegar I've tried ponzu, and numerous homemade concoctions. None of them have penetrated the meat like this stuff does. After only an hour or two of marinating I cooked the chicken legs and not only were they tender and perfectly cooked, but I was surprised to find that the sauce really did penetrate the chicken - all the way to the way to the bone! My new go-to marinate. LOVE IT!

This is absolutely the best barbeque sauce I've ever tasted/used. It will work with everything from tofu to chicken, (meat for meat eaters) and fish. I plan to never run out of it.

I’ll admit, I was skeptical. When a product has this much hype and a "cult following," I usually expect to be underwhelmed. I was wrong. Bachan’s Original Japanese Barbecue Sauce isn’t just good—it has officially replaced the staple sauces in my refrigerator. The Flavor Profile If you’re expecting a thick, syrupy, Kansas City-style BBQ sauce, this isn't that. It is much closer to a high-end teriyaki or a refined unagi sauce, but with significantly more depth. Balance: It strikes a perfect chord between savory (umami), sweet, and salty. Freshness: You can actually taste the ginger and green onion. It doesn’t have that "processed" aftertaste found in many shelf-stable glazes. Consistency: It’s thin and pourable, which makes it an incredible marinade because it actually penetrates the meat rather than just sitting on top. Performance & Versatility I’ve put this through the ringer over the last week to see where it shines: Grilled Chicken Thighs: I brushed it on during the last 3 minutes of grilling. It caramelized beautifully without burning into a blackened mess. Stir-Fry Base: Added a splash to some veggies and noodles; it provided a "restaurant quality" finish with zero extra seasoning needed. Salmon Glaze: This might be the best use case. It cuts through the fattiness of the fish perfectly. The "Spoon Test": Yes, it’s good enough to eat straight.

This is a very good sauce. It is very watery though and doesn't taste much different from a soy sauce, just a little bit more depth of flavor. Good on top of stir fry and rice dishes. Big bottle, will last a while too with a nice pour nozzle.

On the salty side so take into consideration. Adds that missing flavor that’s great.

Usually don’t write reviews but delicious taste

This is a good grocery staple. The quality is solid, it is easy to use, and I would buy it again.

Soy sauce teriyaki not bbq not even thick

Buen producto, está rico, ligeramente ahumado, recomendado

Very versatile, and delicious, sauce. It has a permanent place in our sauce repertoire.

I love this sauce! I'd eat my arm if it was slathered in it. I wish I could get larger sizes. The vendor is great to work with, and ships fast. Costco used to carry it in a larger size, but stopped carrying it. This is my go-to stop to satisfy my craving.

Perfect for barbecuing chicken in the summer or it can be used as a sauce on other Asian style dishes. You can use this on pretty much anything and it is amazing.

I love this stuff It’s great on dumplings Boiled eggs and so much more Saves me the time of making a sauce
