Linda's Hawaiian Barbecue Sauce for Barbecue Chicken and Ribs

Linda's Busy Kitchen's Note:

This sauce is so good I entered it in the BBQ Sauce Cook Off 9/07. Use this sauce on ribs, chicken, pork chops, seafood... Heck, just about anything! It promises to give you the ULTIMATE in flavor. I used this sauce on ribs, and they are absolutely to die for, and the BEST ribs I have ever had the pleasure of making and eating... This recipe is heaven sent, especially for us rib lovers, using 3 racks of baby back ribs! I double the sauce, and use every last bit. Any sauce that may be left over after basting, you can spoon on ribs right before serving. Definately one not to be missed!

This has got to be the BEST rib sauce ever, and I mean EVER!!! We had a tropical themed birthday party, tripled the recipe and used 3 racks of ribs. It was sooo good, I didn't want to share the leftovers! We'll definitely be making these again. All I can say is, "WOW!!!"

FABULOUS ribs!!! I made these ribs along with another recipe and these were hands down the best we have ever had. The whole clan dug in and these were the first to go!! The flavors from the sauce are amazing in this recipe and we enjoyed them several times before the cold weather set in. Make sure you double the sauce and set some aside, cause it's finger licking good and great to dip the ribs into while eating!

What a great sauce!! I didn't actually make ribs--I'm serving it with Kahlua pork for a luau, but this sauce is great! Definitely remember to use LOW SODIUM teriyaki sauce though--I messed up and had to do some doctoring of my own!
