💡 All Cook Out Sauces
Ketchup Sauce
Starting off the list is a culinary classic in any sauce arsenal. The Cook Out ketchup is perfectly balanced with just the right amount of tomato flavoring. It’s neither too sour nor too sweet. The thick texture and deep red color also add to its appeal. The flavor combo is classic paring for fries and burgers. I also love pairing it with my Big Double Tray order, along with cheese, pickles, lettuce, and mustard.
Mustard Sauce
This isn’t your typical mustard sauce. Cook Out has done a fantastic job with this sauce. Its bright yellow hue and creamy consistency make it both a visually and textually appealing condiment. I found its thick consistency is best suited for topping a burger, corn dog, or hot dog. The tangy and vinegary flavors best complement the savory elements of these dishes beautifully.
Mayo Sauce
The best types of sauces at Cook Out are the ones done simply. Cook Out has a simple yet delicious classic that keeps this trend up. It has a subtle tanginess from the vinegar/lime/lemon and just the right hint of sweetness. A great choice for sandwiches, burgers, salads, and dips. I made my own creamy sriracha mayo version of Cook Out’s sauce, and I love the gentle tang it gives my dishes.
Signature Sauce
The infamous Cook Out signature sauce. It’s a delicious blend of soybean oil, tomato puree, sugar, vinegar, and various spices. This gives it an iconic sweet, slightly tangy scent and flavor profile. Its slightly thicker consistency and glistening red appearance are a perfect match for fries, burgers, and grilled cheese sandwiches. But the ideal combination for this signature sauce is with their crispy onion rings.
Ranch Sauce
The herb-infused creaminess of Cook Out’s ranch sauce takes full control of any meal it’s added to. The creamy texture and cooling sensation is more than perfect for use with some spicy chicken sauce recipes and crispy onion rings. The blend of buttermilk, dill, parsley, and spices makes it a ranch sauce to look out for.
Honey Mustard Sauce
Each taste bud is enriched with Cook Out’s delicious honey mustard sauce. The initial taste is a mellow sweetness of honey, followed by the bold, tangy notes of mustard. When compared to the honey mustard from Chick-fil-A sauces and Wendy’s sauces lineup, it could benefit from a few adjustments in its ingredients. But it still makes for the ideal pair for dipping fries, nuggets, or burgers.
Polynesian Sauce
Cook Out’s sauce selection adds another tasty sauce to its lineup. It has an undoubtedly delicious sweet and tangy flavor that’s very pleasant. The sauce also has a rich, vibrant orange-red color and a smooth texture. The blend of sugar, soybean oil, water, corn syrup, and spices is a scrumptious pairing for burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, fries, and onion rings.
BBQ Sauce
Take your average BBQ sauce and slam it full of flavor-packed ingredients. That’s Cook Out’s BBQ sauce. They know how to thicken BBQ sauce in the most delicious ways possible with a sweet and tangy taste and deep, smoky color. A perfect combination for splashing on burgers, hot dogs, chicken, fries, and even onion rings.
Honey Mustard Sauce
Each taste bud is enriched with Cook Out’s delicious honey mustard sauce. The initial taste is a mellow sweetness of honey, followed by the bold, tangy notes of mustard. When compared to the honey mustard from Chick-fil-A sauces and Wendy’s sauces lineup, it could benefit from a few adjustments in its ingredients. But it still makes for the ideal pair for dipping fries, nuggets, or burgers.
Buffalo Sauce
A cayenne fusion of spiciness and tanginess. That’s what the Cook Out Buffalo Sauce has to offer. It has buttery goodness with sharp notes of vinegar and a lingering wave of heat. Even the techniques for thickening buffalo sauce they use blend the perfect silkiness and richness of the sauce. A fantastic combo for chicken tenders, fries, and onion rings.
