Ingredients

Scale

For the sauce:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, horseradish, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth.
  2. Season the sauce: Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using. Whisk until fully combined.
  3. Adjust and chill: Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings as needed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
  4. Serve: Serve the sauce chilled or at room temperature with grilled or smoked chicken, pork, or as a dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • For a thinner consistency, you can add a splash of water or more vinegar.
