¾ cup mayonnaise*, ¼ cup sour cream*, 3-4 Tbsp. ketchup, 2 Tbsp. sweet relish, 2 Tbsp. sweet onion, 2 tsp. white wine vinegar, ½ tsp. Worcestershire sauce, 1 clove garlic, ¼ tsp. paprika, ¼ tsp. salt
Store or Serve: Keep in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours for the best flavor. Enjoy!

Notes

Prep-Ahead Instructions:

This sauce is best when prepared up to 24 hours in advance to allow the flavors to meld.

Storage Directions:

Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks if using fresh garlic, or 1 month if garlic powder was used. Freezing is not recommended as separation will occur.

Recipe Tips:

Make it vegan. Use a plant-based mayonnaise, sour cream, and Worcestershire sauce.
Mince it fine. Avoid big chunks of onion.
Sweet is key. Use sweet relish to balance out the tanginess of the dressing.
Double it up. Make a big batch with garlic powder and store for up to 1 month.
Let it rest. Allowing the dressing to sit in the fridge for at least a few hours gives the flavors a chance to come together.
