At work everyone loves getting Mo Bettahs for lunch. Its a little Hawaiian Joint that seems to be local to Utah with only a few in the state. I took Eddie there for the first time and he was in LOVE!  Their Teriyaki Chicken is definitely the best thing on the menu and the sauce is to dye for. Last visit I found out you can actually buy the sauce so I picked up a bottle and marinaded chicken in it over night then grilled it up (20 minutes each side over medium heat)   Not as good as the original but definitely an awesome way to break the craving!
