The Hawaiian style teriyaki sauce/marinade we used for the chicken skewers sold at Open House from 2003-2014.

Ingredients:

  • soy sauce: 3-4 gallons
  • sugar: 3-4 gallons (needs to be 1:1 ratio with soy sauce) (25-pound bag should suffice)
  • green onions: 1 bunch/gallon of sauce
  • garlic: 1 head/gallon of sauce
  • ginger: 1" piece/gallon of sauce, peeled and cut into rough slices, ~5mm thick (1:1 ratio with the garlic is more important than exact measurement)

Steps:

  1. Heat soy sauce to a simmer (you will want to only fill the pot 1/2 way)
  2. Slowly add in sugar until a 1 : 1 ratio of soy to sugar has been reached
  3. Keep adding sugar until you can't add any more
  4. Add a little bit more sugar for good measure
  5. Dice up two stalks of green onion, one bunch garlic and equivalent amount of ginger for each gallon of sauce and add to the mixture.
  6. Let simmer for 10-15 minutes
