This sauce is typically sold in Chinese restaraunts in Washington, DC and some various Soul Food restaraunts. First time I had it was back in 1990 when I worked for the Corps of Engineers in DC, which was a couple blocks from China Town.

Here's a knock off recipe I found online, it's pretty good and I tweaked it some too.

Mumbo Sauce
1 cup ketchup
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon Hungarian paprika
3 tablespoons hot sauce (I used 2 TBS Crystal and 1 TBS Sriracha)
3 tablespoons water
4 tablespoons white vinegar
I also added granulated garlic, onion powder and a dash of Accent.

Combine in sauce pan and slowly bring to a boil, stirring frequently.

Cut the wings up and fry until golden.

Cathryn and I did damage to the plate but there were about 10 left at dinner time. So I put some waffles from breakfast back into the waffle iron and reheated and sauced the wings. They were even better reheated and sauced. Added some maple syrup to the waffles and dinner was done and delicious!

Crystal and Sriracha? Got them both, but I don't think I would have ever thought to mix them. Now I just might have to change that.

THose wings sure look good from where I am sitting. Might just have to give it a try. Looks like I already have everything except the Hungarian paprika and the accent. I bet I could find a substitute that would work. :? ;)

Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Hungarian is usually sweeter tasting than regular paprika

Looks mighty good. Smart idear mixing those hot sauces. Straight Sirriachi can be a bit overpowering in some applications. Now anybody who mixes hotwings with syruped up waffles got to have a bad case of what is commonly called the munchies. Is Pig's with you by any chance? Thanks.
