Why is burger/fry sauce so hard to find?

[Prolepro]

It isnt popular in the south/some of the east coast, for some reason.

 

[Exellus]

It's called ketchup.

 

[dom]

Aren't fry sauce and burger sauce two different things? Burger sauce is closer to thousand island dressing.

Fry sauce is just a version of thousand island. As thousand island doesnt need to have ketchup while fry sauce does.

First step:

Second step: sweet relish. I'm a big relish guy, so I really go ham with it. Just dump a ton in there.

I've got a spice shaker with 3 parts garlic powder and onion powder, and 2 parts paprika and smoked paprika. Sprinkle a little bit of that in there and you've got yourself a sauce.

Maybe some Dijon mustard if you're feeling saucy. Pun intended.

Pop some lemon juice in there and you've got a stew going

 

[Stormed]

Being from Utah, it's really nice having fry sauce everywhere. It's going to suck ass when I move to Austin though. At least it's just mayo and ketchup

 

[Snack12367]

Because it's trash and everyone who likes it is trash

We have a couple of great ones in the UK, I put it on everything.

What's "fry sauce "?

[Kevers]

The only fry sauce worth a damn is Campfire sauce.

 

[Tedmilk]

As a UKer, a better question would be "Why are burger buns so hard to find?". Seems like no matter which supermarket you go in, there's an 80% chance they won't have anything suitable for putting a burger in.

 

[Maffis]

In Sweden, 'fry sauce' is basically everywhere and it's probably the most popular topping as well

 

[Creation_Scapes]

Cheese is the best burger/fry sauce Kappa

 

[capitalCORN]

The only valid fry sauce is either gravy or malt vinegar.

 

[Tanerian]

So.. Thousand Island Dressing essentially?

Ooooh, I'm gonna try this!

 

[deftones r cool]

pro tip: use hot sauce

 

[sgtnosboss]

Also the mayochup that Heinz put out is disgusting and should be tried at the hague.

This is the fry sauce it's that orange stuff

Thousand Island Dressing is a pretty close approximation of Big Mac Sauce. I used to work at Pizza Hut and every now and then I'd make a "Big Mac Pizza". It was a pan crust pizza that used thousand island dressing as sauce, cooked with cheddar and beef topping. Then when it came out, it was topped with lettuce, onion, and cut up pickle, similar to a taco pizza. Very good, I've made it myself a few times since leaving the pizza business.

Judging by the ingredients gherkin, onion, pepper, mustard seeds

Really good, it's a bit chunky and has a little bit of a heat to it.

Coles hooked it up in Aus

You can't just mash all of the usual condiments together and pretend it's something new....

BBQ sauce would like a word

 

[CopyOfACopy]

sounds like Russian / Thousand Island dressing

 

[Pikachu]

I've never heard of this in my life

I know the joke maychup that Heinz did recently but I thought it was a meme

True, but that wasn't the question

 

[Ashhong]

Isn't it just thousand island?

 

[CaviarMeths]

Mixing ketchup and mayo together and calling it "fry sauce" is probably the whitest thing I've ever heard.

 

[ryseing]

The only fry sauce worth a damn is Campfire sauce.

Click to shrink...

Because campfire sauce is BBQ/mayo, not ketchup/mayo.

I agree that it is delicious.

 

[WestEgg]

BBQ sauce in general is just a superior ketchup.

 

[Barrin]

I'm in Utah and fry sauce is everywhere here. Many fast food places and some restaurants serve it. It's also available in most stores.

 

[HanSoloCup]

My favorite fry sauces have a little spice to it. Kind of like a chipotle mayo. Usually I make my own, but Walmart now has one that is seriously good for like $2.

 

[AndyD]

I like how they pour a shit ton of vinegar and just roll with it.

Click to shrink...

Yep, that was easily three times as much.

 

[Camstun187]

Make some. It isn't hard.

You can buy mayo and paprika powder separately.

It says it's not available for shipping, but it is Great Value brand so I would expect a good number of Walmarts to carry it. My local ones here in Richmond (VA) do.

 

[Doctoglethorpe]

Burger sauce is meh. Real people use chipotle aioli.

Cocktail sauce is good too

 

[Lonewolf]

I've never heard of fry sauce. Reminds me of when my daughter called apple seeds apple nuts. But I'm guessing this is something common outside the US.

Fry sauce is pretty common in and around Utah, my local Dairy Queen here in Oregon offers it, and you can find premade bottled stuff at Walmart.

Aioli is just mayo...unless you're talking about actual middle eastern aioli, in which case doesn't really have "chipotle" in it.

Is this basically the same thing as In N Out's sauce?

Because if so........

I seriously assumed in&out spread was thousand islands.

o.o

It's really easy to make yourself. I go with mayo, ketchup, mustard, worchestershire, oregano, cayenne, paprika and salt. And if my wife isn't having any, I'll add some finely chopped pickle. It's good stuff.

This is interesting. I'll have to try it.

Fry sauce has been around, at least in Utah, since the 1950's.

Mayo is most abundant ingredient but the chili and garlic and lime make it what it is.

 

[Chareth Cutestory]

I see many people have already mentioned its ubiquity in Utah. Haha. The only bad thing about moving away from that state was losing my fry sauce.

 

[Akira86]

fry sauce bleh. we use ketchup and laugh at the people who are weak and need to mix things with mayo.
