Why Make This Recipe
- No need to head to Arby's to get this delicious horsey sauce condiment.
- Copycat Arby's Horsey Sauce is made with just 4 simple ingredients.
- It can be served in a variety of different ways.
- This scratch-made sauce lasts in the fridge for up to 2 weeks!
Ingredients
- Mayonnaise - Makes up the creamy base of the sauce allowing all of the flavors to blend together. I use Duke's mayo, but you can use other popular brands such as Hellman's or Best Foods.
- Creamed Horseradish - This is a mixture of grated horseradish root that has been mixed with vinegar, salt, and cream. You can find it in the grocery store near the other condiments. It adds a kick of heat and flavor to the sauce.
- Superfine Sugar - Helps to balance out the heat from the horseradish and adds a touch of sweetness. You can use regular granulated white sugar, but make sure to stir well and let it rest in the fridge to 'melt' the sugar. Superfine melts quicker.
- Salt - Balances out all the flavors and enhances the sweet and spicy notes.

Variations

Try using half mayonnaise and half sour cream for a tangy twist.
If you like a sweeter sauce, feel free to add more sugar to the mixture.
For even more spicy flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes.
Storage & Freezing
This homemade horsey sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to two weeks in an airtight container. I like to store mine in a mason jar or other glass jar with a lid.
Freezing is not recommended as the mayonnaise can separate when thawed making for a watery mess.
