I introduced this recipe to the Oyster Bar in the early 1990s. We serve about 12 gallons of it every day.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes about 1 cup

Ingredients

1/2 cup Heinz ketchup
1/2 cup Heinz chili sauce
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
Pinch of ground white pepper

  1. Put the ketchup, chili sauce, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire, Tabasco, and pepper into a mixing bowl. Whisk well. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour before serving. It will keep for about 1 week in the refrigerator.
