What’s In Red Robin Campfire Sauce?

I’m not kidding when I tell you – two ingredients. That’s it! No messing around with measuring spices and hard to find ingredients. No paprika, chipotle powder, turmeric or onion powder or measuring a teaspoon of this or a dab of that. Keep it simple. There is no need to overcomplicate this recipe. In a medium bowl simply combine a cup mayonnaise and a cup hickory barbecue sauce.

Mayonnaise

Don’t skimp on the real, full fat stuff. Don’t substitute with Miracle Whip. You’ll thank me later. I always make this Red Robin Campfire Sauce Recipe with Best Foods (aka Hellmann’s on the East Coast). This will make or break your sauce.

BBQ Sauce

You can get creative with what kind of barbeque sauce you use. If you have a favorite sauce, use it! We use Bull’s Eye or Sweet Baby Ray’s. I particularly love the Bull’s Eye BBQ sauce but Bull’s Eye can be difficult to find nowadays. You can also use Sweet Baby Ray’s Hickory and Brown Sugar sauce. You’ll get a natural smoke flavor with that sauce. It has delicious flavorings like tomato paste, lemon juice concentrate, garlic powder and onion powder that blends so well with the mayo.

Homemade BBQ Sauce

If you don’t have any bottles of barbecue sauce on hand and still want to make this Red Robin Campfire Sauce Copycat Recipe, you can make a simple Homemade BBQ sauce at home with a fraction of the preservatives of the bottled sauce. Made with pantry staples like corn oil, ketchup or tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, some brown sugar, mustard, chili powder Worcestershire sauce and a little Tabasco sauce and salt it comes together in no time! So if you’re concerned about calories, carbohydrates, and sodium, this option is ideal to control the ingredients you put into your sauce.

What Does it Taste Like?

If you’re familiar with fry sauce, it kind of tastes like a zingy version of fry sauce. The popular sauce is made with ketchup and mayonnaise, so it’s very similar to this recipe. Creamy, tangy, and smooth with a gorgeous caramel color, this version of Campfire Sauce is simple, full of bright flavorings and tastes delicious!
