Why does PAU! HANA! HAWAIIAN BBQ! taste so ONO? The answer is simple, the process is difficult. We only use the best ingredients like the imported non-gmo soy from Japan and the perfect seasonal Pacific Northwest Pear Juice.

Pau Hana means “finished with work”. So when we developed this Hawaiian Barbecue sauce we wanted to make it so easy to use and cut down on your valuable prep times when it comes to meals at home, at the beach or work.
With any protein, you can put it in a bag, pour the sauce in, mix it around making sure all surfaces are covered. That’s it. When you’re ready to cook, take it out grill it, sear it, or fry it in a pan or cook it over a charcoal or wood fire for amazing flavor.

“Do you have any more of that PAU! HANA! HAWAIIAN BBQ! sauce? I can’t live without it!
~ R. Reil
HAWAIIAN BARBECUE SMOKED FISH
- Marinate your cleaned and filleted fish in PAU! HANA! HAWAIIAN BBQ! for 1-8 hours depending on the thickness of your fillets
- Remove from the marinade
- Air dry on in a cool protected place until the fish feels dry to the touch
- Either hang or rack your fish in your smoker
- Keep your temp way down below 75ºF unless you want to hot smoke your fish until fully cooked. This is personal preference, I prefer cold smoked fish vs hot smoked.
Some of my favorite fish to smoke from Hawaii are AKU “Skip Jack Tuna”, Ahi, A’U “Blue Marlin” and Papio (<10#)/Ulua “Giant Jack Trevally“. Some of my favorite fish to smoke from the Pacific Northwest are Wild Copper River Salmon, Wild Steehead, Wild Rainbow Trout and Kokanee “Landlocked Sockeye Salmon”.
WANT TO THICKEN IT UP
- To thicken the sauce, heat it up in a sauce pan and put a bit of cornstarch slurry into it and reduce till desired thickness. It happens quick so keep an eye on it constantly stirring.

Hawaiian Barbecue, what is it?
Hawaiian Barbecue is a mix of locally influenced foods in Hawaii. Usually cooked over a grill or Hibachi with coals or a live fire burning Kiawe wood. It isn’t what most people from the mainland would consider BBQ or the standard mass produced BBQ flavor, mostly based on Hickory. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some good mainland BBQ. But being born and raised in Hawaii with all the different cultures and foods intermingling, Hawaiian Barbecue is so satisfying.
Hawaiian Barbecue, is it Hawaiian?
Hawaiian Barbecue is not actually Hawaiian. It has some influences from many different cultures. It’s distinct to Hawaii but not Native Hawaiian. Hawaiian food is amazing and includes 21 plants called the Canoe Plants. They were brought by the original ancient Hawaiians. These plants are:
`Ape – (elephant’s ear), `Awa – (kava), `Awapuhi Kuahiwi – (shampoo ginger), Hau, Ipu – (gourd), Kalo – (taro), Kamani – (Alexandrian laurel), Ki – (ti), Ko – (sugar cane), Kou, Kukui – (candlenut), Mai`a – (banana), Milo – (portia tree), Niu – (coconut), Noni – (Indian mulberry), `Ohe – (bamboo), `Ohi`a `Ai – (mountain apple), `Olena – (turmeric), Pia – (Polynesian arrowroot), `Uala – (sweet potato), Uhi – (yam), `Ulu – (breadfruit), Wauke – (paper mulberry)
