Chick-fil-A Sauce is a creamy copycat dipping sauce made with mayonnaise, barbecue sauce, yellow mustard, honey, and a splash of lemon juice. It has the sweet, smoky, and tangy flavor of the restaurant favorite and takes about 5 minutes to mix together.
I started making this sauce at home to go with my Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich recipe, and it couldn’t be easier. Everything gets stirred together in one bowl, and I usually let it chill before serving so the flavors have time to come together.

Tips I Found Helpful 💙
- Use your favorite BBQ sauce: The flavor of the BBQ sauce comes through, so choose one you already enjoy.
- Whisk until completely smooth: Make sure the honey and mustard are fully incorporated into the mayonnaise.
- Let it chill: Refrigerating the sauce for about 30 minutes before serving gives the flavors time to blend.
