Boss Sauce is a sweet and spicy sauce that is made in Rochester by American Specialty Manufacturing, Inc. It is somewhat similar to Country Sweet sauce, which is also locally produced.
The sauce was created by Eddie Harris, the owner of American Specialty Manufacturing, Inc., and was based on a family recipe. It was originally served at Eddie's Chicken Coop, which opened in 1981 and was located on Portland Avenue.
Several area restaurants serve wings with boss sauce, sometimes referred to as "Rochester Style".
It can be purchased online, as well as from local retailers such as Wegmans.

2006-05-24 20:04:12 Boss Sauce is a terrific sauce created in Rochester that we used to cook with in the 80's. Very flavorful, sweet and with a bit of a kick. —PeteB
2007-02-09 10:09:45 Country Sweet sauce tastes just like Boss Sauce. I wonder which came first —EastSideStephen
2007-06-06 02:34:44 I prefer Boss Sauce. It doesn't seem quite as sugary as Country Sweet sauce and it has a little more vinegar. —NathanHenderson

2008-07-22 01:35:17 I love Boss Sauce. The Cajun Gold wings at MacGregor's are a bit of an homage, I believe. —MariahBetz
2008-12-07 17:28:00 I don't think MacGregor's Cajun Gold tastes anything like Boss Sauce. According to some inside info, Cajun Gold is a mixture of Cattlemen's Gold bbq sauce and Guinness. —NathanHenderson
