May Menu Powerhouse: BBQ & Cinco de Mayo

May is a dual sales driver, featuring both National Barbecue Month and Cinco de Mayo, creating massive demand for grilled, globally flavored menus. Seize this opportunity by moving beyond traditional BBQ and leveraging different types of Kikkoman Teriyaki Glaze for inspired creations. Follow the lead of innovators like Chef Faron, who used Kikkoman to develop unique items like Blackberry-Tamarind Char Siu Pork Ribs, showcasing how the glaze adds deep umami, essential moisture, and a shiny finish to protein. Use the Teriyaki Glaze to create complex, fruit-infused BBQ sauces, marinades for carne asada, or a unique finishing touch for grilled seafood. Kikkoman streamlines preparation while ensuring your BBQ and Mexican-inspired dishes offer the craveable, high-quality flavor customers seek during this festive spring season.
