Description

This homemade A1-style steak sauce delivers the perfect balance of tangy, spicy, savory, and sweet flavors. A simple and quick alternative to store-bought versions, it’s perfect for drizzling over steaks, using as a marinade, or pairing with grilled meats. Ready in just 12 minutes, this easy-to-make steak sauce brings a bold kick to any dish!


Ingredients

1 ¼ cups ketchup

2 tablespoons yellow mustard

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 ½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar

4 drops hot sauce (such as Tabasco)

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, add ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, hot sauce, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper.
  2. Simmer: Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  3. Cook and Blend: Let the sauce cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow the flavors to blend and the sauce to thicken slightly.
  4. Cool and Store: Remove from heat and allow to cool before transferring to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

For a milder version, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper and hot sauce.

If you prefer a smoother sauce, blend it with an immersion blender after cooling.

Use as a marinade for meats or as a dipping sauce for fries, onion rings, or vegetables.
