Smoky, tangy, and sweet, this sauce feels like fast food nostalgia made at home. Easy to whisk together, it is a dip, drizzle, or spread that makes every bite a little more fun.

This sauce is the kind of condiment that finds its way onto everything. Creamy and tangy with smoky undertones, it balances mustard and honey with a touch of BBQ. Use it as a dip for fries and vegetables, drizzle it over sandwiches, or spread it onto burgers. Simple to stir together in minutes, it keeps beautifully in the fridge and is always ready when a meal needs an extra spark.

I’ll preface this by saying I’m not a chef — just someone who loves to cook and needed a place to gather and share the recipes that have shaped my kitchen.

 

From the classics that are always on rotation to the discoveries I’ve stumbled upon along the way, you’ll find them here. Each recipe is shared in its original form, with Anthology’s Notes added at the end to reflect the tweaks and touches that suit our table.

 

Over the years I’ve tried to make many recipes my own, so you’ll also see those variations woven in.

 

Basically: cook, taste, adjust, and repeat.
