Smokey Southern Comeback Sauce, Easy Sauce, Homemade Pantry Item, Shrimp Sauce

Smokey Southern Comeback Sauce is a trendy sauce that comes from us from Mississippi. It’s a modern sauce that is used on everything from chicken to fried pickles.

The name comeback sauce comes from the southern saying, where you do not say bye, you say you all come back now, you hear—thinking that the sauce is so good, that you will go back to the restaurant for more.

Today, I served it with a batch of Air Fryer Fried Shrimp, and you can also serve it with a homemade set of Air Fryer Onion Rings or even a collection of Air Fryer Chicken Wings.
