- 1/2 cup Mayo
- 1/4 cup Ketchup
- 1-1 1/2 Tablespoons Dill Pickle Brine
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce (Gluten-Free, As Needed!)
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon Paprika
- 1/8 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (or more, to taste)
Combine. In a small mixing bowl, combine mayo, ketchup, pickle juice, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Whisk until evenly blended.
Taste & Adjust. Next, taste and add additional pickle juice, more paprika, cayenne, or a bit of salt, as needed. (Keep in mind the flavor will continue to develop with time!)
Serve & Store. Enjoy with french fries, sweet potato fries, tater tots, or even chicken tenders! Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the fridge 5-7 days.
Trust Your Tastebuds. You may want to play with the ratios here, to suit your tastes. Some recipes use equal parts mayo and ketchup, some use more pickle juice. Keep in mind that the flavors will develop with time, so don't overcorrect!
Variations To Try. We love this yummy sauce just as written, but you can play with the flavor a bit!
- Add BBQ Sauce. Mix 1-2 Tablespoons of BBQ sauce into the finished sauce.
- Use Chili Powder or Smoked Paprika to add some smokiness.
- Add Hot Sauce. A few drops of tabasco, Frank's red hot, or your favorite hot sauce can turn up the heat!
