Comeback sauce

Comeback sauce is a dipping sauce for fried foods or as a salad dressing in the cuisine of central Mississippi.[1] Similar to Louisiana remoulade, the base of the sauce consists of mayonnaise and chili sauce (or some approximation of that combination).[2] The origin has been credited to The Rotisserie, a Greek restaurant that was located in Jackson, Mississippi.[3][4]
