Sweet pineapple, deeply savory miso, fragrant Chinese five-spice. These are the notes that make the Poi Dog Huli Huli sauce sing. “Huli Huli” means “to turn” and refers to Hawaii’s favorite chickens turning slowly on sizzling spits. Huli Huli smoke is a siren song for people to line up, knowing that their fingers would soon be oil slicked and blackened, tearing into chicken flesh, seasoned with soy, pineapple, and a lot of smoke.

Poi Dog’s Huli Huli sauce grabs all these essences and memories and bottles them – but the sauce is versatile. Just slather a whole chicken with the sauce and pop it in the oven for 30 min, then broil it to make a dupe for Hawaii's famous street rotisserie chicken. Also can be used to season noodles, tofu and to sear mushrooms or your burgers with.
