If you love that famous dipping sauce from your favorite chicken spot, you are going to be so happy with how easy it is to make at home. It has just the right balance of smoky, sweet, and tangy flavors that make it impossible to stop dipping.

My secret for the best flavor is to let it sit in the fridge for at least thirty minutes before serving. This gives the ingredients time to get to know each other and creates a much smoother taste.

๐Ÿงบ Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸณInstructions

  1. 1

    Add the mayonnaise, barbecue sauce, honey, mustard, and apple cider vinegar to a small mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Whisk everything together until the sauce is smooth and combined.

  3. 3

    Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least thirty minutes to let the flavors blend.

  4. 4

    Serve chilled with your favorite crispy chicken or fries.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. It tastes great with chicken nuggets, onion rings, or even as a spread for burgers and sandwiches.
