This sauce gets its signature flavor from a combination of creamy, tangy, and spicy ingredients:

    Ingredients

    • ½ cup mayonnaise – The rich and creamy base.
    • 2 tbsp ketchup – Adds a slight sweetness and acidity.
    • 2 tbsp sour cream – Brings a tangy creaminess.
    • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce – Adds depth and umami.
    • ½ tsp paprika – Gives a mild smoky flavor.
    • ½ tsp cayenne pepper – Adds a kick of heat (adjust to taste).
    • ½ tsp garlic powder – Enhances the savoriness.
    • ½ tsp onion powder – Complements the garlic and gives depth.
    • ½ tsp prepared horseradish – The key to that signature Outback zing!
    • ¼ tsp salt – Enhances the flavors.
    • ¼ tsp black pepper – Adds a mild bite.

    Storage Tips

    • Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
