Many many years ago when I was a wee lad in Chicago, my daddy used to bring home takeout from Argia B's BBQ joints, and often a bottle of his "mumbo sauce" which is not at all the sauce now associated with Washington DC.
Last summer, I found that it was still being made, and I bought a dozen bottles online. Just now ordered my second dozen. Love this stuff, and highly recommend.
Here is a recipe from Meathead, along with an article about the sauce. I been meaning to try and make some, but haven't gotten to it. Maybe I'll order some up to compare. Which one do you prefer, the original?

I like the original best, and I usually add a few drops of habanero. The tangy hot has a slightly different (vinegary?) flavor which makes ir my least favorite, although some of my dinner guests love it. The hickory is my go to sauce for those who like a mild sauce.
