Just curious, but does anyone have a recipe similar or the same as the sauce they put on the teriyaki  "yummy yummy"  chicken in the mall?  thanks in advance

Haven't been to a mall in probably 5 years. 

Assume you mean the pinkish sauce?

pinkish , redish, kind of a heavier sauce they grill the chicken with and spoon over the chicken and veggies before served.  yummy yummy sauce?   as they call it...

This sounds like it would end up pink.

My kid would go ballistic if I got ahold of this sauce recipe.  He loves Sarku.  I'll be following this closely.

+1, but for myself, I love Sarku. My teriyaki chicken never comes out close! Looking forward to additional responses. Also he is not referring to the "yum yum" sauce that is a staple from most hibachi joints, this is a teriyaki marinade, brownish red in color and not thick or pasty like yum yum.

I couldn't even find it on Google.

You can buy this kind at our local Walmart.  We love it.

Just my $.02 but mixing the chicken in a stand mixer seems like a completely unnecessary step.

I'm with @Chubbs when it comes to a mall, so I have never had Sarku, but I did a little digging and found this thread on Chef Talk.

It's a little long, but you may find your answer here. There is a video on page 3 demonstrating the cook on a griddle. Hope it helps.

That looks spot on, guess the stand mixer is to help further tenderize?

A lot of work and cleanup afterwards for this recipe.

After reading the thread @Dredger posted the chef that worked there stressed massaging the meat, so I guess the mixer is to automate that process.  Personally I would just do it by hand.  Maybe put it in a big zip loc and give the pick up the bag and massage it every so often.  This has piqued my interest...especially since I have a griddle.   Of course if I do this my kids will insist the rice is fried.
