Burger Sauces

By stancec44

Charcoal Burger Sauce: This killer “secret” sauce is great on a burger or even French fries. A little bit different from the typical norm of mayo, ketchup, and relish, I came up with this custom concoction by playing around with what I had available in my pantry and fridge. The result is an insane balance of sweet, spicy, acidic, and savory.

Classic Burger Sauce: sometimes called “special sauce,” takes familiar condiments — ketchup, mayonnaise and relish — and combines them to create a supercharged sauce that elevates a simple patty from good to great.

Ingredients

• Charcoal Burger Sauce:
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 1/2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons Champagne vinegar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons honey

• 1/2 teaspoons wasabi paste
• Classic Sauce:
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 2 teaspoons sweet pickle relish
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon pepper
