Description

A creamy, tangy, and slightly smoky dipping sauce that takes your fries (and burgers) to the next level! The secret ingredient? Pickle juice! It adds just the right balance of acidity and flavor.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tbsp pickle juice (secret ingredient!)
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp hot sauce (optional, for a kick)

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients in a small bowl until smooth and well combined.
  • Taste & adjust – Add more pickle juice for tang, more ketchup for sweetness, or more hot sauce for heat.
  • Chill – Let the sauce sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve – Dip your fries, onion rings, chicken tenders, or even burgers in this creamy goodness!

Notes

  • Want it smokier? Add a few drops of liquid smoke or extra smoked paprika.
  • Prefer it sweeter? Stir in a teaspoon of honey or BBQ sauce.
  • Make it spicier! Add cayenne pepper or sriracha.
