The history of Jeniras Famous, Inc. has ultimately been lived through the life of its signature sauce, Jenira Sauce. In his grandmothers kitchen on the west side of Chicago around the year 1990, Ira Rounsaville, Jr. found a recipe for buffalo wings on the label of a hot sauce bottle. Curious about the taste and excited by the simplicity of the recipe, this novice teenage cook mixed the two ingredients for the wing sauce; hot sauce and margarine. He poured the sauce over some chicken wings his grandmother had made and to his delight he was very pleased with this newfound taste and recipe.
