Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise full-fat for best results
  • 1/4 cup Ketchup
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper freshly ground preferred
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper optional, adjust to taste for heat
  • 1/4 tsp Salt or to taste

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Airtight Container

Method
 

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce.
  2. Add the garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper (if using), and salt to the bowl.
  3. Whisk all ingredients together until the mixture is completely smooth, well combined, and uniform in color. Ensure there are no lumps.
  4. For optimal flavor development, cover the bowl or transfer the sauce to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally 1-2 hours, to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. This step is crucial for the best taste.
  5. Serve the chilled Homemade Raising Cane's Sauce with your favorite fried chicken, chicken tenders, fries, or anything that calls for a delicious dipping sauce!

Notes

Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days. The flavor will often improve after a few hours or overnight in the fridge. Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preferred spice level, or omit it entirely for a milder sauce.
