Ingredient notes
- Ketchup - any of your favorite store-bought kinds will do.
- Horseradish - be sure to get the actual horseradish spread and not one that has been made into a sauce.
- Seasonings - garlic powder and cayenne pepper help to give this recipe a bigger kick.
How to make this
In a small bowl combine the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Mix together thoroughly.
I recommend allowing at least two hours to let this refrigerate so the flavors can mingle. However, you can use it right away.
Expert tips
If you want an even spicier spicy ketchup then increase the cayenne pepper. If you want less heat you can leave out the horseradish and reduce the cayenne pepper.
