    ✨ Here is why this recipe is amazing:

    • Tastes JUST like Chic-Fil-A sauce!
    • Perfect for dipping more than fries.

    🥫 Ingredients needed:

    chick fil a sauce ingredients in bowls with text overlay labeling them. BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, mustard, honey, lemon juice.

    Here is a visual overview of the ingredients in the recipe. Scroll down to the recipe at the bottom for quantities.

    📝 Ingredient notes:

    • Mayonnaise - I use a full-fat mayo and love to use Duke's but use the mayonnaise that your family loves.
    • BBQ-Sauce - for this recipe I used a store-brand barbecue sauce.
    • Mustard - yellow mustard is used in this copycat recipe. See the substitutions for other options.
    • Honey - I will always advocate using local honey because you are supporting a local beekeeper as well as being sure that it is pure honey.
    • Lemon juice - bottled lemon juice is what I used for this recipe. I would say that fresh is not called for like it is in my lemonade popsicles.

    🔄 Substitutions

    Everyone likes to make their fry sauce their own with a special twist. Your special twist could be switching out dijon mustard or whole grain mustard for the yellow mustard. BUT plain yellow mustard is more authentic.

    The classic waffle fry is what I serve with this CFA sauce. Don't forget about chicken nuggets, a chicken sandwich, use it as a sandwich spread, instead of mayonnaise, sweet potato fries or tater tots! Anything you can dunk or needs a savory spread Chick fil a sauce will be delicious.
