Instructions
Step 1: Combine Dry Ingredients
- Gather all your dry ingredients: garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- In your mixing bowl, combine these with a whisk to ensure they’re evenly distributed.
- Note: Proper mixing of your dry ingredients ensures that every bit of your sauce packs the same flavorful punch!
Step 2: Add Wet Ingredients
- To the dry mix, add the mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, Dijon mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Warning: Be sure not to over-whisk, as it can cause the mayonnaise to separate and lose its silky texture.
Step 3: Adjust Seasoning
- Taste your sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- If you like a bit more kick, a small pinch more of smoked paprika can do wonders!
- Tip: Always taste as you go. Building flavor gradually is key to creating a sauce that’s perfectly tailored to your palate.
