This is a bbq sauce with some island flair.

2 sweet onions (maui, vidalia etc.)
6 cloves of garlic
1 finger of ginger (about 1"x4")
1/2 c. soy sauce
1 piece of star anise
1/4 c rice vinegar
1 tbsp honey
 2 tbsp srarachi or substitue asian chile paste
1/4 c guava or lilikoi jelly
the zest and juice of a lime
1/4 c olive oil
1 tbsp sesame oil
salt and pepper to taste

Finely chop the onion, garlic and ginger. Set aside. Grind the anise into a powder. You can use a coffee grinder or just put in a ziplock bag and pound it untill it's pretty well pulvarized. Heat the olive oil in a sauce pan over medium high. Add in onion and stir for about 3 minutes. Add garlic and ginger and stir for another minute. Add anise and lime zest. Season with salt and pepper. Add remaining ingredients. Stir in 4 cups of water and bring to a boil still over medium high heat. Reduce heat and let simmer for about 2 hours or till liquid is reduced by half. If you want thicker sauce, dissolve 2 tbsp of corn starch in 1/2 cup of water and pour into sauce. Raise heat to medium high and stir till it comes to a boil, than  remove from heat.
 Use as a mop or finishing sauce.

 I forgot to add that you can get several hawaiian foods at trader vics, and the asian ingredients are in most grocery stores. Specialty asian ingredients can be found at the asian market at the chinese curtural center
