    What is Boom Boom sauce?

    Boom Boom sauce is mayonnaise-based dipping sauce that is made with ketchup, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. It is the perfect dipping sauce for your favorite savory foods.

    This sauce is perfect for those who want a little kick in their sauce, but don't want it too spicy. You can add more sriracha to make it spicier!

    Why this recipe works

    • This sauce takes under 10 minutes to prep from start to finish!
    • You will only need a few simple ingredients you probably have in your kitchen for this recipe!
    • This sauce is super delicious and is the perfect dip for fried food, fries, and a perfect spread for burgers!
    • You can make this sauce vegan by swapping the mayonnaise with vegan mayonnaise!

    Ingredients

    Before you start to make this recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.

    Full measurements are in the recipe card below.

    Mayonnaise- use your favorite brand of mayonnaise. If you consume vegan or low-fat mayonnaise, that works too!

    Ketchup- use your favorite tomato ketchup for this. I used Heinz ketchup, but you can definitely use any off-brand ketchup!

    Sweet chili sauce- the sweet chili sauce adds a light spicy-sweet flavor to this delicious sauce.

    Sriracha sauce- sriracha adds a bit of a kick to this sauce. You can use your favorite brand of hot sauce if you don't have sriracha.

    Garlic powder- use your favorite brand of garlic powder for this recipe.

    Kosher salt- I love using kosher salt for cooking and baking, but you can use your favorite salt for this.

    Black pepper- you can use freshly ground black pepper or store-bought ground black pepper. White pepper will work as well.

    Expert Tips

    • Adjust the flavors to your personal liking. You can make it saltier by adding more salt. You can make it spicier by adding more sriracha, etc.
    • Add a squeeze of lemon for a slight tang. You can use lemon or lime!
    • Try to make this sauce a few hours before you plan to serve it to let the flavors sit and make it more flavorful!
    • If you like your sauce at room temperature and not cold, take some of the sauce that you plan to use for that meal 30 minutes or so before you plan to eat.
