In and Out Secret Sauce Recipe

You already know that our family doesn’t eat out much, so what am I doing posting a recipe for burger sauce from a fast-food joint?

Well, during the past few years, when my husband had to travel often for the business that we owned, he ended up having to eat out many times. After an In N Out Burger opened right across from the hotel they would have to stay at; they could try out these supposed “legendary burgers” that everyone talks about.

I’m not sure if the burger was really the best thing ever, but the sauce was tasty. The best part is that we can replicate that sauce at home!

How to Use the Dipping Sauce

Here are the simplest and most delicious ways to use this sauce at home.

• Use it as a topping for your favorite burger recipe.
• Use it to top meatloaf the last few minutes of baking.
• Dip your homemade french fries or onion rings in the sauce.
• Use it as a dipping sauce for chicken nuggets or chicken tenders.
• Use it for another relish on top of hot dogs.
• Use as a spread on sandwiches instead of plain mayo.

Leftover In N Out Sauce Copycat

If you have any leftover sauce, store it in an airtight container or a jar in the fridge.

It’s just as good if not better, the next day! You can store this in your fridge for up to a week. I would not recommend this sauce for longer storage in the freezer.

Variations to the Copycat Recipe

• Add more mayo if you think the ketchup flavor is too strong.
• Use sweet pickle relish instead of dill relish if your family likes the taste of sweetness better.
• Add a few drops of Tabasco sauce or hot sauce for a kick.
• Use a vegan mayo instead of regular mayo if you need to avoid eggs.
• If you don’t want to make it at all, use Thousand Island Dressing instead. It’s very similar!
