Servings: 1 cup
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter ghee, or vegan butter
- ¾ cup hot pepper sauce such as Frank's
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Melt the butter in a pot or small saucepan.
Once the butter has melted, whisk in the hot sauce, white vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Mix until combined.
- If your butter separates from the hot sauce, then it means it hasn't been mixed well enough. Try mixing your buffalo sauce with a whisk instead of a spoon.
- To thicken buffalo sauce, create a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water), bring the buffalo sauce to a simmer, then mix in the slurry.
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Use this buffalo sauce for all of your favorite buffalo needs and desires.
