How To Make Raising Cane’s Sauce With Only 5 Ingredients

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Denison chapter.

If you’ve never been to Raising Cane’s, you’re missing out big time. This fast food restaurant is known for its amazing fried chicken, buttery garlic Texas toast, crinkle-cut fries, and—best of all—its tangy, rich Cane’s sauce. Raising Cane’s sauce is arguably the main reason anyone is utterly obsessed with the establishment, so what if I told you you could make the exact same sauce at home? Lucky for you, a fired Raising Cane’s employee revealed the famous secret sauce recipe on Twitter/X, so you’ll never have to eat a plain old chicken tender again.

Fans and employees of the fast food joint on “Caniacs” Reddit have deduced that there’s nothing on the market quite like Raising Cane’s iconic sauce, which still hasn’t been manufactured for big box grocery stores (unlike their rival Chick-Fil-A sauce, which is now sold in bottles).

What ingredients are in Raising Cane’s Sauce?

This sauce comes together with a few key pantry ingredients and for a significantly smaller price than a Caniac Combo. It includes: 

– Ketchup

– Mayonnaise 

– Garlic Salt

– Worcestershire Sauce

– Black Pepper

Why should I make Raising Cane’s sauce at home?

This homemade recipe means you’re free from the sadness of still having two more chicken tenders and a handful of fries, but an empty container of Cane’s sauce. It also goes great on burgers and sandwiches, so feel free to get creative!

Make this copycat Raising Cane’s sauce recipe for your friends or bring it to a party, and I promise they’ll be begging you for the recipe. Without further ado, here’s how to make Raising Cane’s sauce at home.
