Frequently Asked Questions
What is the right ratio of mayo to garlic pepper rub?
Use 1 cup of mayonnaise and 1 to 2 teaspoons of Back of the Yards Garlic Pepper Butcher's Rub. Start with 1 teaspoon, taste, then add more if you want stronger flavor.
Can I use a different mayonnaise or a substitute?
Yes. Any good mayo works. Duke's adds extra tang but Hellmann's or homemade mayo are fine. For dairy-free use a vegan mayo. To cut fat, swap half or all mayo for plain Greek yogurt.
How can I make the spread spicier or milder?
For milder flavor use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of the rub. For more heat add extra rub, a pinch of cayenne, or a few drops of hot sauce until it suits your taste.
How long will the garlic pepper mayo keep in the fridge?
Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days. Toss it if it develops an off smell, strange color, or mold.
How do I get a smoother texture and better blended flavor?
Whisk vigorously, or pulse in a food processor or blender for 10 to 20 seconds. Let the spread sit 15 to 30 minutes so the flavors meld before serving.
Can I add fresh garlic, lemon, or herbs?
Yes. Add 1 small minced garlic clove or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder for more garlic punch. A squeeze of lemon brightens the flavor. Fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or dill also work well.
What are common uses for this mayo spread?
Use it as a dip for fries and veggies, a spread for burgers and subs, a topping for grilled meats, or a sauce for wraps and sandwiches. Add it after cooking as a finishing sauce.
Can I make a larger batch for a party?
Yes. Scale up using the same ratio of 1 to 2 teaspoons of rub per cup of mayo. Keep the batch refrigerated and use within 5-7 days. Stir before serving.
