Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup Ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Yellow Mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar

Sweeteners

  • 1–2 tablespoons Honey or Brown Sugar (adjust to taste)

Spices

  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper or Hot Sauce (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Combine the Base Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, and apple cider vinegar until smooth and well combined. This creates the tangy, savory backbone of your steak sauce.
  2. Sweeten the Sauce: Add honey or brown sugar to the bowl, stirring well to dissolve completely. This touch of sweetness balances the acidity perfectly and gives the sauce an irresistible glaze-like quality.
  3. Season with Spices: Sprinkle in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using. Mix thoroughly to distribute all the flavors evenly. The spices add complexity without overwhelming the taste buds.
  4. Let it Rest: Let the sauce sit for at least 30 minutes, preferably in the refrigerator. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and deepen, turning your simple mixture into a rich, flavorful masterpiece.

Notes

  • Use quality ingredients like fresh spices and good-quality ketchup for the best flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness gradually to find your preferred balance.
  • Letting the sauce chill enhances its depth of flavor and smoothness.
  • Start with a small amount of cayenne or hot sauce and increase gradually to avoid overpowering the sauce.
  • Store sauce in airtight containers to keep it fresh and vibrant longer.
