- 1 tbsp Bear & Burton’s Fireshire (or your spicy ketchup alternative)
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp finely chopped dill pickles (or good-quality relish)
- 1 tbsp Blazing Star Reaper Rub
- (Optional: swap or add Blazing Star Scorpion Rub / Blazing Star Pork’n Rub for more or less heat)
🔥Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl (or jar), combine mayonnaise, Melinda’s Jalapeño Ketchup, Bear & Burton’s Fireshire, and mustard.
- Stir in chopped dill pickles (or relish).
- Add Blazing Star Reaper Rub and whisk until fully blended.
- Taste, and adjust spice/heat by adding more Reaper, Scorpion, or Pork’n Rubs as desired.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight) to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled as a spread or dip for burgers, sandwiches, fries, or more.
💡Pro Tips
- Use full-fat mayonnaise for a richer, smoother texture.
- Let it sit overnight—flavors deepen after resting.
- Adjust heat gradually; you can always add more rub but can’t remove it.
- Try this sauce on Scorpion Candied Bacon, Reaper Armadillo Eggs, or as a burger spread on your Tour of Asia Smoked Pork Belly Bao Bun Tacos.
