Ingredients
Sauce Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise

Instructions
- Combine the base sauces: Place equal parts ketchup and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add black pepper: Sprinkle enough ground black pepper on top to just cover the surface, then stir it into the sauce to evenly distribute the pepper flavor.
- Repeat seasoning: Once more, sprinkle black pepper lightly over the sauce and stir it again until fully incorporated for a balanced peppery taste.
- Serve and enjoy: Use the comeback sauce immediately as a dip for fries, chicken tenders, or your favorite snacks.
Notes
