I decided to go through my saved draft archives and see what I could clean up. Honestly, some of them just needed a bit of editing and could be published. Some were missing a lot if information, and some were just mere ideas that I jotted down and saved to explore and create later.
Here is one I was able to use.
We have a tradition here on both Christmas Eve and for the Super Bowl: making a massive sandwich of some sort. Whether it’s in December or February (or whenever the Super Bowl is that year), we call it The Super Bowl Sandwich. Usually it’s split and toasted Peasant Bread, slathered with mayo and Dijon, piled with turkey, ham and cheeses, broiled a bit more and then topped with peppers, pickles, olives, and shredded lettuce.
So, as I was perusing through my drafts, I found this recipe. It was honestly just a list of ingredients. I decided to dub it The Secret Sauce. (Original, I know.) It’s basically a campfire sauce but I used BBQ sauce instead of ketchup.

The Secret Sauce
Ingredients
- 1/4 c. mayo
- 3 T. BBQ sauce
- 1 t. dried onion
- 1/8 t. garlic powder
- 1 T. Dijon
- dash (or more) of Sriracha
- black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth.
Place in refrigerator and let set for at least 30 minutes.
Use as a spread on sandwiches or as a dipping sauce.
I’ve made this with a hickory barbeque sauce and a “Hot & Spicy” one. Both versions were great! I plan on using this on the Super Bowl Sandwich on February 9 for Super Bowl LIX! But, before then, we tried it out as a dipping sauce for some zucchini fries!

If you need a good recipe for zucchini fries, there’s one here.
Most worthy, I must say.
Since I wrote this original post, we have used this sauce on burgers and regular French fries. It’s a keeper. I will let you know how it works out on that Super Bowl Sandwich.
Have a great time with the Super Sandwich!! Does guacamole lurk somewhere as well?

Unfortunately no guac this year. We had a onion dip and a bean dip.
