What is your favourite sauce of the big three :
Ketchup - Arguably the most widespread and common sauce used for flavouring your burgers, BBQ and other dishes. Can be considered the normie basic-guy option from others opinions.
Mustard - The yin to Ketchups yang, also widespread in dishes previously mentioned in Ketchup section, either exclusively used or paired with Ketchup combining the flavouring.
Brown Sauce - HP, Daddies etc this sauce is pretty popular in the UK (Where I live) and goes great on chips/fries and prior dish mentioning.
It is also a cardinal rule to be put into bacon sandwiches among the brown sauce community.
What is your favourite sauce to use?
“Brown sauce” isn’t a thing in America - sauce that is brown and has no name is just gravy.
Anyway I’ll stick with mustard mostly, paired with mayo on some subs.
A1 is my go to “cover up that awful shit so I can stomach eating it” sauce. Similarly good if somebody overcooks meat.
Marinara for dipping stuff into.
The only circumstances I’ll accept for ketchup is when it comes by default on a burger, in which case I can’t be bothered to care, paired with mayo at better burger joints.
Mayo mixed with a spicy chili sauce.
Sriracha Mayo.
Yes or any kind of curry powder, the looks you get are part of the experience.
Also from the UK and I am, apparently, a normie, basic guy - ketchup all the way.
Mayonnaise
It is one of the mother sauces.
It’s good for you.
Yeah it tastes good and also works as a zesty lube too.
Hellman’s for the win.
This comment right here officer. (Fwiw, I up voted)
Upvotes or downvotes, it’s all the same to me.
It means you care enough to interact with my content.
So wholesome. Now you’ve gone and got me all emotional, SatansMaggotyCumFart
Not sure how you can talk about “the big three” of condiments and leave out mayo. Is it just non-existant outside of North America or something?
I’m from Germany and I have literally never heard of Brown Sauce as a condiment. Perhaps just as a sauce, but to top a dish?
It’s the most common sauce in Europe.
No. It’s incredibly common in the UK. Used on burgers and sandwiches. Not sure about other meals/foods.
I am disgusted it was not included. I am an utter mayo monster.
Spicy mustard. Yellow is acceptable for chili dogs (only).
As a general rule, I don’t eat ketchup. My wife and kids love it, but I rarely have it. I normally eat my fries with nothing but some seasoning salt, but thick steak fries demand vinegar.
Brown Sauce - HP, Daddies etc this sauce is pretty popular in the UK (Where I live) and goes great on chips/fries and prior dish mentioning.
I don’t think Germany has this, usually.
For us the three big ones would be Mayo / Ketchup / Mustard I imagine. Of which personally, spiced Mayo always wins out (Miracle Whip). Just too used to it from my childhood. 😅
You monster, what about curryketchup? (I think that’s the English word for it?)
I respect you as a human and your unique existence… Miracle Whip is ass.
Yes, I see it similar. But miracle whip is not mayo and does not count
Tartar sauce
Hot sauce!
Sriracha not in there is criminal.
What kind of ketchup? Tomato, banana, mushroom?
Rock ketchup, obviously
Mayonnaise.
Brown sauce? Please, that’s only a thing in Britain. The only sauce which defies national borders and cultures is mustard .
Ketchup is a western sauce. Mayo is an JP/K sauce. Hot sauce isn’t even mentioned but is more widespread than brown sauce.
Mayo is an JP/K sauce
Offended Dutch noises. (And most of western Europe).
Relish or mayo. Ketchup is too sweet and artificial-tasting, mustards are hit or miss for me.
Ketchup, I guess? It goes better with most things than mustard. But if I had to pick a sauce of my choice it’d probably be Tare sauce, I just really like the taste of it.
Spicy brown mustard, bonus if it’s whole grain. Yellow mustard has its uses but is a sad excuse for mustard.
Ketchup is gross, it’s so fucking sweet. If I wanted a sweet topping I’d use honey. It’s like pouring corn syrup on your food.
Hot sauce is the real king seasoning
You nailed Ketchup.
Also, mayonnaise is fucking disgusting. I worked at subway in high school and we had to install wide-nozzle tubes on our mayo dispensers because the morbidly obese customers would say things like “I don’t want to be able to see the sandwich, just bury it in mayo” and it would hold up the sandwich line.
Let’s get down to it: top 3 hot sauces? I go Valentinas, green Tabasco, sriracha. Honorable mention, gochujang, tapatio
Actual barbecue sauce that isn’t a one-note, sweet sauce like I find in Asia but rather has tang, spiciness, & smokiness. I made some at home based on Gates sauce & gave some to locals who they were absolutely blown away that BBQ sauce can actually have a complex flavor flavor.
#2 would be sawmill gravy, #3 sweet chili, #4 jim jaew, #5 salsa verde, #6 tahini
Nowhere on my list & actually make me gag: ketchup, yellow mustard, brown sauce
