Bachan's Variety Pack Japanese Barbecue Sauce

I was introduced to this sauce a while back and have grown to find it very functional and a great addition to many different meals. Great flavor, easy to use and match with many different foods.

I originally bought this because it was #1 in bbq sauces although I knew it wasn’t a typical bbq sauce. It arrived here a few days ago, I have used it at least four times since then. It is excellent on rice, mashed potatoes, I even used in on some potato soup that was homemade but a bit bland, was wonderful! I have already added more to my next Amazon purchase. If you like things like teriyaki sauce, you will love this!

All I can say is try the sauce and you will be amazed, you can make some great tasting Chinese food at home

This was a surprise in every good way possible. I loved how sweet and savory and tangy it had a little bit of heat but not to the point where it would be too much. I can serve this barbecue sauce to my entire family and not have to worry about it being too bland for some or too spicy for others. It was just an all around, really great barbecue sauce. That is now going to be a staple in my home.

This Japanese BBQ sauce is fantastic, not what you would expect due to the name BBQ in it but it is amazing! It’s an amazing sauce when glazed on the grill with chicken!

It's more like a marinating sauce and the one that I used was the barbecue and it was too salty. I do not like the flavor for me. I'm not use the other two bottles but I know I will not be using the barbecue again.

Taste is great for stir-fry.

Ginger overtones have made for an interesting change from other pungent herb flavors like rosemary or oregano that are usually prevalent in the BBQ sauces I use. This also has a slight tangy after taste, which is again interesting given it isn't tangy in general. It's mostly Savory with a little sweet backing it up. I would say that the thinness and lack of distinguishable chunks of anything in it makes it not a glazing sauce as it will bead right off of hot meat. Rather this is a wet BBQ sauce. Meaning you grill to the point of dry crispy outsides, then use this stuff to rehydrate the outside during the sweat/stand time. That is of course unless one is using it as a main ingredient in a marinade or to thin down a thicker sweeter sauce to preference (an adjuster of sorts). Or even using it as a dipping bbq sauce. Which are all good options. I have pleasantly surprised quite a few people with it. I would say that it goes better with chicken than with pork (having tried it on both but not on beef or fish yet). I use it mostly with drumsticks (just because drumsticks are my favorite). I could see adding some heat to it and using it for hot wings.
