I found the vinegar scent way too strong for me. I had high hopes, but didn't enjoy the final product until I sprinkled Caribbean Jerk powder on my chicken breasts as well.

Used chili sauce instead of tomato, upped the soy sauce a little and reduced the sugar by half. Really good.

My husband said this was the best BBQ Chicken he had ever made on the grill. I made the basting sauce as directed, except for reducing the sugar to 1/2 cup. Perfect! Kids loved it, too. Would be good on pork or salmon. Thanks for a great new recipe!

This was very good, but very similar to 'Japanese chicken wings' from this site. Sorry, but I prefer the Japanese chicken wings recipe to this.

Very Good!! We used this basting sauce on grilled chicken and it was very tasty!! As suggested by others, I too, reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup and it was sweet, but not too sweet. Other than that I followed the recipe as written. This is a snap to put together and an added bonus - I had everything on hand in the pantry. I made it early in the day and just let it sit at room temperature until grilling time. The chicken came off the grill with a beautiful sheen, and it was moist and delicious. I’ll be making this one again! Thank you!

Not a bad sauce...way 2 sweet even for my husband who typically likes a sweet sauce...i had to cut the sauce with some hot chili sauce, that helped a little...if i were to make this again, i would cut the sugar to less 1/2 cup

After reading the reviews i decided to add a tbsp of red pepper flakes to counter the overly sweet flavor that others said it had. It really did the trick and the sauce was awsome.

Love, exactly as written! One quick note: I notice a lot of ppl subbing fresh ginger for jarred or powdered in recipes - Buy a "hand" of ginger, wrap it in plastic wrap then put in a freezer bag, and use as needed. It's super easy to grate this way - just peel a small amount, grate away, then back in the freezer. Hope that helps someone.
