Burger Sauce

An easy mixture for smearing onto burgers and other big flavored sandwiches. This keeps for a few days once made, and is easy to tweak.

INGREDIENTS:

¾ cup mayonnaise

½ cup ketchup

¼ cup Dijon style or a sweet-hot mustard

4-6 splashes Worcestershire sauce

1/8^th teaspoon garlic powder or a little fresh garlic grated on a ginger grater or Micro-plane

Salt and pepper as needed

-Options-

For cold or hot beef sandwiches, try 1-2 tablespoons prepared horseradish

For burgers, fried fish, or similar sandwiches, try adding 1-2 tablespoons pickle of hamburger relish

1-2 tablespoons Sriracha hot sauce

For fried shrimp. Add 1-3 tablespoons Tabasco sauce

METHOD:

Add everything to a non-reactive bowl and whisk well to combine. Sauce is best if it has at least 15 minutes before use so flavors can marry.

Yield: Around 1¼ cups
