If Father's Day means firing up the grill in your family, Costco shoppers have spotted a find that can add plenty of flavor to the celebration. The warehouse retailer is once again stocking a Bachan's Barbecue Variety Pack. This three-bottle set gives grill lovers multiple ways to elevate ribs, chicken, vegetables, and more throughout the summer.

You can see the pack in this June 8 TikTok post from @discovering_costco:

The Bachan's Barbecue Variety Pack costs $16.49 and includes three flavors: Sweet Honey, Roasted Garlic, and Sweet Pineapple. Together, the set contains 50.05 ounces of sauce, making it easy to experiment with different flavor profiles throughout grilling season.

The value only adds to the appeal. Individual bottles currently sell for $9.95 each on Bachan's website. Purchasing all three flavors separately would cost nearly $30, making Costco's $16.49 variety pack less expensive than buying two individual bottles at regular retail pricing.

Costco's Bachan's Variety Pack Offers Three Ways to Upgrade Summer Grilling

Bachan's has built a loyal following thanks to its sweet-and-savory Japanese-inspired flavor profile and versatility in the kitchen. The sauces can be used as marinades, glazes, dipping sauces, or finishing sauces for everything from grilled meats to vegetables.

The Sweet Pineapple variety adds a tropical twist and can be used to marinate meats and vegetables before grilling. Bachan notes that pineapple naturally helps tenderize meat, making it a popular choice for summer cookouts.

Roasted Garlic combines sweet roasted garlic with raw garlic flavors, making it a natural pairing for steak, seafood, chicken, and even comfort food favorites like mashed potatoes and meatballs.

Meanwhile, Sweet Honey balances honey with savory ingredients like soy sauce, ginger, and green onions. The result is a sweet-and-savory sauce that works especially well on ribs, roasted vegetables, and baked beans.

When the sauces appeared in Costco warehouses last year, shoppers on Reddit's r/Costco community were quick to share their thoughts.

One user wrote, "There is only life before and after Bachan's BBQ."

Another commented, "There are so many awful Asian sauces out there, and this one is sooooo good!!! Have the spicy and regular in my fridge right now."

A third shopper added, "This stuff has become a staple in the fridge."

According to Bachan's, the sauces are inspired by a multi-generational family recipe passed down from the founder's grandmother. In Japanese, "Bachan" is an affectionate term for grandmother. The company emphasizes simple ingredients and versatile flavors that can be used across a wide variety of dishes.

Whether you're planning a Father's Day cookout, need a small gift for the grill lover in your life, or want new ways to add flavor to summer meals, Costco's Bachan's variety pack offers three popular flavors at a value that's hard to beat.
