This Saucy Burger Sauce is the ultimate creamy, smoky, sweet, and tangy condiment that transforms any burger into a gourmet masterpiece. The marriage of mayo and BBQ sauce forms a luscious base, while the hint of brown mustard, hot honey, and warming spices delivers a crave-worthy depth. It’s perfect for burgers, but also amazing as a dipping sauce for fries, onion rings, or grilled chicken.

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1/3 cup BBQ sauce (choose your favorite smoky, sweet, or spicy variety)
• 1/2 Tablespoon brown mustard (Dijon or spicy brown)
• 1 teaspoon hot honey (or regular honey plus a pinch of red pepper flakes)
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular paprika if preferred)
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for an extra savory kick)
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional, for additional depth)
• Pinch of salt and pepper to taste

Peparation

3. Add the chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder (if using), onion powder (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well.
