Absolutely the best sauce I’ve ever bought! It makes stir frying so easy. You just squirt as much in as you’d like towards the end and everyone will be amazed. I made this beef and noodle dish and used the sauce with baking soda to marinate the beef, then used it as the main sauce as well. It was a hit with the dinner guests.

I used the sauce for the first time tonight on a broccoli/red pepper/steak bowl I threw together and I was amazed at the flavor the sauce imparted. I wasn’t sure what to expect...hopped up soy sauce maybe? Let me tell you that it is so much more than that and unlike anything I’ve tasted before and with the flavor profile I plan on using it on everything...if you are reading this order a bottle or ten right now!

I was intrigued by this sauce and ordered two bottles last week. I'm vegetarian, but I used Bachan's Japanese BBQ on some vegan wings. Upon throwing the sauce into a hot pan, it instantly vaporized, resulting in the most beautiful, simple caramelization I've ever seen. Don't expect Americanized overly sweetened barbecue that you're used to. If I ate meat, this stuff would be used with literally every meat I can think of. I can't even begin to imagine how magical it'll be on the grill.

My new favorite sauce for a quick dinner

A friend turned me on to this stuff and I immediately bought a couple bottles. It’s my new favorite sauce to drizzle over simple roasted vegetables, brown rice, and some meat. It’s a great marinade and goes great on some rice with an egg for breakfast. This will be a new staple in my kitchen.

I mixed three different types (Yuzu, Hot and Spicy, and regular) for this purchase; and reviewed the first two separately. So here's my review of the regular: it's phenomenal. If you're on the fence, go ahead and hit "buy" because you will be blown away. One of the best sauces I've ever had.

I love this product because it provides a much needed filler to the in-home teriyaki sauce gap. I put this on all sorts of Asian-style foods like teriyakis, stir fry, and rice dishes. I don’t have to rely on bbq sauce or plain soy sauce anymore to add flavor and extra sauce.

I will be a lifelong customer. There’s nothing else at the grocery store quite like it. Used as a marinade or sauce, it is so tasty and easy. My only criticism is that the sauce clogs the spout sometimes and you can’t squeeze. You have to clear it out fairly often or just unscrew and pour!

flavor is good, but it's just as runny as water!

the flavor is there, but it taste more like a sour teriyaki than a bbq sauce. it's the same consistency as water, so it's completely impossible to put it on top of anything without it running off. i'll try using it as a marinade since using it as a sauce is out of the question sadly.

I was extremely leery of buying this online but was extremely happy with my purchase. We used it on chicken and were extremely happy with the taste. Also, I love that it is a thinner type of sauce. I do not like sticky, thick sauce so this was terrific! I would definitely purchase this again. Side note: I love the name "Bachan" as my kids call my mother Bachan!

Between 2003-2007, I was stationed in Sasebo, Japan, and there was a restaurant I frequented there, with a dish I preferred. I always looked for a sauce that came close to it, but didn't for 13 years until now. Everyone makes their own differently, but this is really close, and I'm very happy to have found it.
