Bachan's Japanese Barbecue Sauce.
Bachan's Japanese Barbecue Sauce is built on a family recipe from Judy Yokoyama, the bachan, or grandmother, of founder Justin Gill, made with traditionally brewed soy sauce, mirin, ginger, garlic, and green onion. Pinecraft Outdoor Kitchens carries both Bachan's Original and Bachan's Hot & Spicy Japanese Barbecue Sauce for cooks who want a savory, umami-forward glaze.


A family recipe,
bottled for your smoker too.
Bachan's Japanese Barbecue Sauce comparison
Bachan's Original Japanese Barbecue Sauce is made with traditionally brewed soy sauce, mirin, ginger, garlic, and green onion, which is closer to a Japanese teriyaki-style glaze than the tomato-and-molasses base most American barbecue sauces start from. Bachan's traces its recipe to Judy Yokoyama, the grandmother, or bachan, of founder Justin Gill, who was born in Sebastopol, California, in 1936, and the sauce still reads like a family recipe rather than a lab-formulated condiment: sweet, salty, and garlicky rather than smoky-sweet.
Pinecraft's catalog carries both Bachan's Original and Bachan's Hot & Spicy Japanese Barbecue Sauce, so a cook can glaze chicken thighs, brush it on grilled pork, or use it as a dipping sauce for smoked wings straight off the grill.
