- Tomato Paste: This thickens things up and gives a rich, concentrated tomato base. No sub for this, it’s the foundation of the Arby’s sauce.
- Distilled Vinegar: Adds a tangy zip and cuts through the sweetness.
- Brown Sugar: So the vinegar’s bite is balanced with a warm sweetness. You can also use molasses for a deeper, richer flavor, but it’ll be a bit less sweet.
- Water: Thins the sauce to a dippable consistency. Adjust as needed.
- Tabasco Sauce: Brings the heat! Add a few drops at first and taste your way to your preferred spice level. You can swap this out for any of your favorite hot sauces.
- Onion and Garlic Powder: These savory spices add depth and flavor.
- Smoked Paprika: This gives the Arby’s sauce a smoky, almost barbecue-like flavor. Regular paprika is okay, but you’ll miss that smoky touch.
- Worcestershire Sauce: Adds a whole bunch of umami and savory goodness
- Salt and Pepper: Don’t skip these flavor boosters! Adjust to your taste.
- Cornstarch: Thickens the sauce slightly and makes it smooth and glossy.
