I love a simple fried chicken sandwich. Delicious, moist, tender chicken. Crunchy breading. Served on a bun with lettuce, tomato, onion… and a sauce. A good sauce. A little something to cut through the heaviness from that deep-fried loveliness. This copycat Bojangle’s Bo’s Special sauce did the trick. This nice creamy sauce has a little edge to it. A little kick. Thanks to horseradish.

Heck I’m Not Even A Fan Of Horseradish

The funny thing about this copycat Bojangle’s Bo’s Special Sauce? I’m not even a big fan of horseradish and I still loved it. Sometimes dishes go too far with the horseradish for me. It’s not that I don’t like that taste, that flavor. It just makes my mouth feel weird! But not in this sauce! This sauce has the perfect balance of flavors, even the horseradish!

Make a batch and keep it on hand for more than just fried chicken sandwiches. Try it on burgers. Lunchmeat sandwiches. Any place you might want to use mayonnaise, this is better.

I store my homemade sauces in squeeze bottles. If refrigerated, I set them out thirty minutes to an hour before using so they come to room temperature. You don’t want to put cold sauce on hot food!
