Cane’s Sauce Ingredients

Mayonnaise (½ cup): Makes the sauce creamy and smooth. It creates the rich base that helps everything blend together.
Ketchup (3 tablespoons): Adds sweetness and tang and gives the sauce its classic color. It balances the savory flavors.
Worcestershire sauce (1 ½ tablespoons): Adds depth and a savory, slightly tangy flavor. It is what makes the sauce taste more restaurant-style.
Garlic powder (1 teaspoon): Gives a warm, savory flavor that blends evenly throughout the sauce.
Coarse black pepper (½ teaspoon): Adds bite and that signature speckled look. Coarse pepper gives the best texture.
Salt (½ teaspoon): Balances the flavors and makes the sauce taste bold and seasoned.

How to Make Raising Cane’s Sauce

Whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, pepper, and salt in a medium bowl. Refrigerate.

Kristyn’s Recipe Tips

Chill the sauce for at least 1 hour if you can; the flavor gets better as it sits.
Use coarse black pepper for the most classic taste and texture.
Taste after chilling and adjust salt or pepper if needed.
Want it a little tangier? Add an extra splash of Worcestershire.
This sauce is great as a spread on burgers and sandwiches, not just for dipping.
