About Boom Boom Sauce
Boom Boom Sauce is a mayo-based sauce that is addictively delicious and can be used as a dip for just about anything. Its sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors instantly make any dish taste exceptional. Initially served at Sheetz gas stations with deep-fried pickles, this sauce quickly gained popularity.
The recipe combines mayonnaise, sriracha, sweet chili sauce, yellow mustard, and tomato ketchup. With the addition of garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, the sauce becomes even more versatile and delicious. The best part? It only takes 5 minutes to make, and the homemade version tastes absolutely fabulous. Plus, there are no added preservatives, colors, or stabilizers, making it a healthier and more cost-effective choice.
I personally recommend making this sauce a few hours ahead of serving to allow the flavors to meld together. However, you can also prepare it several days in advance. This recipe yields about 1 and ½ cups of sauce, but feel free to adjust the quantities based on your needs.
No need for pans, stoves, or blenders; simply mix the ingredients in a bowl and it’s ready to be devoured. It’s that easy!
