The history of Spiedie Sauce dates back to the early 1920s in Binghamton, New York, where Italian immigrants brought their culinary traditions. The marinade, a blend of olive oil, vinegar, and a mix of herbs and spices, was originally used for lamb, but over time, chicken became a popular alternative. Today, the dish is a staple in the Southern Tier region of New York, with numerous local restaurants and festivals dedicated to this beloved specialty. The key to perfecting Spiedie Sauce with grilled chicken skewers lies in the marinade, where the flavors of garlic, mint, and oregano infuse the meat, creating a tender and flavorful dish. For the best version of this dish, head to the Spiedie Fest and Balloon Rally in Binghamton, where you can sample authentic Spiedies from various vendors.
