Aurelio's To Sell Some Sauces At IN Stores, But Not Secret Pizza Sauce
Aurelio's pizza chain will sell 3 of their famous sauces at Strack & Van Til stores but will not be selling their famed secret pizza sauce.
HOMEWOOD, IL — Aurelio's pizza, a chain which first opened in Homewood, will now sell some of their famous sauces at select grocery store locations throughout Northwest Indiana, officials announced.
Three of the pizza chain's restaurant sauces — tomato basil, vodka sauce and marinara — are now available at Strack & Van Til grocery stores.
"We are so grateful to be able to work with another family business," a spokesperson from Aurelio's wrote in a social media statement.

While many fans of the Illinois-based establishment were happy to hear the news, some still repeated an age-old request for a retail version of Aurelio's pizza sauce which is made using a secret recipe that has never been released or sold.
"That will always be a secret!" a spokesperson wrote in regards to comments.
