Calories: 205kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons whole grain dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons liquid hickory smoke
- ¼ teaspoon guar gum optional
Instructions
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk the mayo, maple syrup, dijon mustard and liquid smoke together until combined.
- Transfer to a squeeze bottle or glass jar. Use this sauce to top burgers or as a dip for yam fries etc.
- To Thicken the Sauce (Optional): If you would like a thicker burger sauce, follow this step. Slowly sprinkle the guar gum into the sauce while whisking. Continue to whisk until it thickens. It will become more thick once refrigerated.
Notes
- Store covered in the refrigerator for up to two months.
- I only use the guar gum if the sauce turns out thin. This will depend on the mayo. Don't add more than called for or it will turn out gummy.
- Once you've made your sauce, you can douse it on your typical BBQ mains and sides: burgers (such as bison burgers, beef, chicken, turkey, vegetarian black bean etc.), steaks, hot dogs, ribs, potato fries, yam fries and grilled bread.
