Sriracha Aioli

Nothing is as easy to throw together as a simple aioli like this Sriracha aioli. Make a big batch and keep it in a squeeze bottle in the fridge. It’s great for topping roasted turkey sandwiches. Or regular sandwiches, wraps, and hot dogs. And it’s great on burgers.

Any place you now use mayonnaise, substitute this Sriracha aioli instead. It’ll take something that was just ok and make it taste fantastic. Sriracha has a great spiced flavor, with just a little heat. If you’re not a fan of Sriracha you can substitute your favorite hot sauce instead.

Ranch Dipping Sauce for Wings

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

This is my go-to Ranch dipping sauce for wings. By using homemade Ranch mix I save a bundle on making this sauce versus using store-bought packets, so I usually make a big batch of it. There’s nothing worse than having a lot of hot wings and not having enough Ranch dipping sauce to cool them off.

Of course, this great sauce isn’t just for wings. You can put it on your salads, too. Or use it as a dip for vegetables. Any place you normally use Ranch dressing out of a bottle, substitute this homemade version.

Ranch Dipping Sauce for Wings

This sauce gets “happier” if you let it set in the fridge overnight.

Nacho Cheese Sauce

This is my go-to easy nacho cheese sauce. It’s great over hot dogs (such as the awesome grilled San Antonio hot dogs shown below). It’s also fantastic as a dip, drizzled over steamed veggies, over baked potatoes, on burgers. Just about everything needs this sauce. Add chili to make a great chili sauce for fries. Or, add salsa for a fantastic dip.

Grilled San Antonio Hot Dog

Spice It Up!

Add just a little cayenne or chopped pickled jalapenos to your sauce. Or chipotles in adobo sauce or your favorite hot sauce. Sriracha is also awesome in a cheese sauce! It’s more than ok to add a little kick to this nacho cheese sauce.

Chipotle Aioli

This is the perfect kicked-up aioli. Great for topping roasted turkey sandwiches, regular sandwiches, wraps, hot dogs (yes, hot dogs) and burgers. Everything where you would use mayonnaise. This chipotle aioli takes something that was just ok and will make it taste fantastic.

Perfect For Non-Boring Sandwiches

Why have boring when you can get a little heat and a little smoky flavor to boot? Make a batch of chipotle aioli and keep it in the fridge. I’m not shy with this sauce when I make a big ole sandwich. And I like for it to set for a few minutes before I dive in. I like it to soak into my bread. More flavor is better I say!

Cherry Doctor Pepper BBQ Sauce

I smoked some pork shoulders this weekend that were injected and basted with Cherry Doctor Pepper. The end result was the best pulled pork I’ve ever had. Everyone that ate it said it was fantastic. Super tender, super moist, and just the right smoke flavor. Along with the pulled pork I served this great Cherry Doctor Pepper BBQ sauce.

Cherry Dr Pepper Pulled Pork

Sauce On The Side, Please

I like to serve (and be served) Cherry Doctor Pepper BBQ sauce on the side. First, you get to add as little or as much as you want. Second, it doesn’t let you hide less-than-perfect meat. I always sample meats first before saucing them. A good sauce can cover up for over-cooked, under-smoked meat, so order yours “dry” (sauce on the side).

Beer Cheese Sauce

Oh me. This beer cheese sauce has lots and lots of uses, from a dip for pretzels or chips to topping hot dogs or burgers, or even over pasta. We served it warm with warmed pretzel balls and a few Tostistos Scoops. Some Fritos would be good too. Everything disappeared in minutes! This sauce is so good you’ll be tempted to grab a straw down the whole lot in no time!

I Like A Little Heat

Adjust the heat to your tastes. I like this sauce nice and spicy. For a thicker beer cheese sauce, just let it cook a little longer.

This sauce is also great on baked potatoes.

Blackening Seasoning

I love blackened chicken or fish. For years, I bought those pre-made blackening seasoning mixes. Now, I just make a batch of this version from Chef Paul Prudhomme. This is mighty spicy (to some). I think that’s a very good thing, but if you’re not really after the heat, back off on the cayenne. Just add it in in small quantity, tasting as you go. I wouldn’t leave it out entirely as it is an integral part of the great flavor this mix lends to any meat.

Blackened Chicken Alfredo

Make A Big Batch

This blackening seasoning would also be great on steak. Or use it in chili. Or mix some into ground beef for burgers… you name it. It definitely makes for some fantastic blackened fried shrimp. Yum!

Herb Dipping Sauce

I made this herb dipping sauce as a sauce for rosemary chicken wings. Turns out it also makes a great salad dressing. And it’s great as a chimichurri-like sauce for grilled meats. It definitely packs a nice herby flavor. That was the point!

Rosemary Chicken Wings with Herb Dipping Sauce

A Different Kind Of Dipping Sauce

The herb dipping sauce really complemented the herby flavor of the chicken wings. You instead of dipping the chicken into the sauce you could brush it directly onto the chicken. Split chicken breasts or quarters, grilled to perfection and brushed with the sauce is absolutely divine (and different)!

I could not find fresh oregano so I used dried. Fresh would definitely go with the ‘fresh’ theme of this sauce, so if you have it, use it. Just start with a little taste to see if you need to add more.

Ranch Dressing Mix

It seems like forever that I’ve been searching for a replacement for those expensive packets of dried Ranch dressing mix you can buy at the store. Finally, I’ve found the perfect one. And the nice thing about making the mix at home? I can tweak it a bit for my own tastes. For me that means a bit more dill.

Dried Buttermilk For That Great Flavor

This recipe for Ranch dressing mix requires dry buttermilk. I found it near the canned and powdered regular milk in our grocery store. Although it wasn’t cheap, it’ll make a very big batch of dressing mix. That’ll more than make up for the cost versus the packaged stuff.

Roasted Tomato Sauce

This simple roasted tomato sauce made with fire-roasted tomatoes is excellent for dipping (or topping) ravioli or any pasta dish. You can also use it with tortilla chips for a different twist on traditional salsa.

If you grow your own tomatoes you know how they can all ripen at about the same time. This sauce is the perfect way to use up a lot of tomatoes in no time. Just make a few big batches of this sauce. It freezes well for use all year long. You don’t have to rush to eat it!

Roasted Tomato Sauce

A Great All-Around Sauce

If you’re bored with your usual pizza sauce, give this roasted tomato sauce a try instead. The fire-kissed tomatoes take on a different, richer flavor. They add a lot to this otherwise simple sauce. For even more of that roasted goodness, roast the garlic too!
