Tips
1. Use crispy bacon only
Soft bacon turns soggy in the sauce. Make sure it’s cooked until crisp and well-drained before mixing.
2. Fresh jalapeños make a difference
Skip jarred ones — fresh jalapeños bring better texture, aroma, and heat balance.
3. Finely mince your mix-ins
Small, even pieces of bacon and jalapeño blend more smoothly with mayo and ketchup, ensuring a creamy, cohesive sauce.
4. Adjust spice level
Remove jalapeño seeds for mild heat, or keep them in for a spicier kick. You can even substitute with roasted peppers for a smoky twist.
5. Rest the sauce
Chill in the fridge for 15–30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld beautifully.
6. Pair it right
This sauce is perfect not only for fries but also for onion rings, grilled burgers, chicken tenders, or even drizzled on tacos.
7. Storage tip
Keep leftovers in an airtight jar for up to 5 days in the refrigerator. Stir before each use.
