  1. I made this into a dump recipe and put it in the freezer. I followed the recipe exactly as written other then I used light soy sauce instead of soy sauce. I made the marinade and cooled. I placed it in a freezer bag. I then added the thighs and froze. I also made another batch but followed the directions as written and ate it that night. The night before making the batch I put in the freezer, I pulled and let it thaw in the fridge. In the morning, I dumped everything in the crock pot and cooked for six hours. This may sound funny but the smell of this is a bit overwhelming and doesn't smell the best but the taste is awesome. I made this for freezer tag 2008.
     
  2. Very good! Easy to do and with one pot! I also used leftover teriyaki sauce a second time with a boneless turkey breast and it was still good! Great recipe!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Florida and love it here. (We could do without the lovebugs and misquito's though...) My favorite pastime is just getting out of the house and doing something; seeing a game, going for a bike ride, or just going for a walk or reading outside. (I get sloth-like if I stay indoors too long). I love Cooks Illustrated/America's Test Kitchen and buy their magazines and cookbooks often.
