BUFFALO, N.Y. — Buffalo's original wing sauce that started it all is being relaunched to kick off the new year.
John Young's Original Mumbo Sauce was originally sold in Western New York's first official wing shop by the owner of Wings N' Things on Jefferson Avenue in 1961.
The sauce is making a comeback after two decades, on Saturday, January 6 at the Michigan Street African American Heritage Corridor for its launch party event from 12:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m.
John Young's original sweet and tangy sauce can be put on anything, but if you're from Buffalo, it's obvious what you may use it for.
In a Facebook post people are able to get an inside look at the production of the sauce and they wrote, "Today we bring you inside the operations at our co-packing facility, during the first production run."
The family recipe has been featured on multiple food & history platforms and can be purchased here.
