At Joy’s Mambo Sauce, our story starts with a dream and traveling halfway across the world to the United States before ending up in Maryland.
Because mambo sauce is an obsession — a religion — in DC, it only made sense to create a unique concoction, a mixture of spices, sauces, and secret ingredients that stands out from all the other mambos in the region.
From Joy’s Kitchen to (more than a few) recipes, Joy’s Mambo Sauce came to life in 2002. In Oxon Mill, just outside Southeast DC, a tangy, flavorful, everyday sauce was born.
This Isn’t Your Chicago Sauce
Some of you might think mumbo sauce started in Chicago, and you’d be right. [This isn’t your Chicago sauce.] The first mass-market mambo sauce wanted to go by “mumbo” sauce, but Chicago couldn’t handle the special twist we’ve put on their Midwestern classic.
Mambo sauce is purely a DC creation with everyone’s own interpretations and recipes. With more intensity, often more spice, and an all-purpose flavor, mambo sauce rules the roost.
Joy’s is the most unique recipe of the bunch.
