Eminem’s Mom’s Spaghetti Pasta Sauce now sold by the jar online

DETROIT — The creators of Eminem’s Mom’s Spaghetti concept have said many times that they meant for the cuisine to give you the feeling that Mom may have scooped the tangy red sauce straight from the jar.

Now, Eminem’s Mom’s Spaghetti Pasta Sauce is sold by the 25-ounce jar. It’s available online at momsspaghetti.com for $13 or $25 for two. (Most Moms know you can get four jars of Prego at that price, even without a coupon, but that’s not the point here.)

Just like the small restaurant in Detroit operating at Union Assembly on Woodward across from Comerica Park, Mom’s Spaghetti is a partnership between Detroit rapper Eminem, Metro Detroit restaurant group Union Joints and Em’s manager Paul Rosenberg, who calls this “quite an exciting past few years in pasta.”

“It all began in an experimental pop-up shop around the release of the ‘Revival’ album in 2017. The initial feedback was incredible so we decided to take it on the road during Em’s 2019 festival run, and that all led up to the opening of Mom’s Spaghetti in Detroit,” Rosenberg said in a press release about the jarred sauce. “The massive response to the restaurant made us realize that there’s a market out there for our sauce, so we spent the last year working on how we could get it to people without having to come all the way to Detroit.”

Union Joints co-owner Curt Catallo said the tomato-based product is a “Detroit-made, Midwest-produced sauce that will make you feel like you’re standing right there in the alley off Woodward Avenue.”

“Our approach has always been the same; to create a scratch sauce that tastes like it’s straight from the jar,” he said. “We put a lot of care into how we make the sauce, and our business model always allowed us to maintain strict quality control and create a consistent product, even as we set up pop-up restaurants at various cities around the country.”

In addition to the website, jars of Mom’s Spaghetti Pasta Sauce will be sold at “The Trailer,” the merchandise shop above Mom’s Spaghetti restaurant at 2131 Woodward in Detroit.
