- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
- Add mayonnaise, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and Creole seasoning to a small bowl.

- Stir once more before serving and enjoy.

Notes
Why Chilling Matters
If you eat the sauce right away, it will taste mostly like ketchup. After resting in the fridge, the flavors blend together and create that classic Cane’s-style taste. Overnight chilling gives the best result.Tips & Variations
- Use freshly cracked black pepper for a stronger flavor.
- For a lighter taste, use light mayonnaise.
- No Worcestershire sauce? Try a small splash of soy sauce or balsamic vinegar instead.
- Add a little extra Creole seasoning if you like mild spice.
