Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions:

  1. In a small mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise and ketchup. Whisk vigorously until the colors merge into a uniform, pale-orange hue with no streaks remaining.
  2. Stir in the apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Fold the ingredients together until the spices are fully integrated and the sauce looks smooth and glossy.
  3. Taste the sauce with a piece of your intended side dish. If it feels too heavy, add another teaspoon of vinegar; if it needs more punch, add a pinch more salt.
