Our story
Made in Macon, Georgia, since 1935
M.E. Griffin created the recipe in 1935, blending the mustard sauce of his family's South Carolina roots with the tomato-based sauces popular farther west. He named it for his wife, Etta, and in 1949 built a plant in downtown Macon. We still make every bottle in small batches in Macon, using the same recipe and time-honored process.
Mrs. Griffin's Original Barbecue Sauce
The 1935 recipe that started it all: a tangy blend of mustard, tomato and vinegar that's thin enough to mop and bold enough to dip. Try it on pulled pork, ribs, burgers and chicken wings.
