I am sort of obsessed with making condiment recipes for you. I love how a simple little sauce or dressing can completely change a recipe.

This is, again, true with this great Chick Fil A Sauce and Grilled Chicken Sandwiches. Those sandwiches are good on their own. But this sauce takes them over the top.

Nathan loves Chick Fil A so much that they know his name there. I’m not kidding. And occasionally I go with him and I always grab several packets of the Honey BBQ Sauce. It is so delicious and puts fries and the chicken sandwich over the top.

This Homemade Chick Fil A Sauce is just like what you get there. Even Nathan thinks so – quite the endorsement.

Reader Review

Absolutely delicious!! Not just with chicken but also wonderful for dipping homemade pigs-in-the-blanket. Making a second batch in one week.

Grilled Chicken Sandwich

Skip the takeout and make the best Grilled Chicken Sandwich recipe right at home. Made with a delicious marinade and amazing Honey BBQ sauce recipe, your family will fall in love with this chicken sandwich.

What is Chick Fil A Sauce

Chick Fil A Sauce is a really simple recipe that combines honey, BBQ sauce and mayonnaise. It makes a wonderful dipping sauce or sandwich spread.

Chick Fil A Honey Roasted BBQ Sauce Ingrdients

Only a few simple pantry ingredients to make this recipe! In lieu of BBQ Sauce, we are adding a few of the key ingredients to my homemade BBQ Sauce.

For the full list of amounts be sure to read the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

  • Mayonnaise
  • Honey
  • Yellow Mustard
  • Ketchup
  • Lemon Juice
  • Brown Sugar
  • Apple Cider Vinegar

If you don’t have any apple cider vinegar, you can use white vinegar. But, I will suggest you buy a bottle of apple cider vinegar; it adds such a wonderful tang to this and many other recipes – like my Bourbon Chicken.

How to Make Chick Fil A Sauce

The best part about this recipe is that it is just whisking it together. There is no need to heat it up or let it simmer like with my traditional BBQ Sauce.

How to Use Honey BBQ Sauce

Like any great condiment, there are a lot of different uses for this recipe.

Storing

This copycat Chick Fil A Sauce can store in an airtight container for up to four weeks in your refrigerator.

That said, I can’t express enough that you should use your best judgement. If you inadvertently used an ingredient that wasn’t fresh, or was close to it’s expiration date, that storage time could be shortened.

Please use your best judgement. If it smells or looks off, in other words, different from how it was when you first made it, toss it.

Because of the mayonnaise in this recipe, I would not recommend freezing it.

  2. jackson moses says

    you can taste each ingredient including the sourness of the lemon juice. it leaves an awful aftertaste in your mouth

    • Lisa Longley says

      Hi Jackson! Is it at all possible that your lemon juice has turned? I’ve made this recipe countless times and I can never taste the lemon juice as separate from the rest of the recipe.

  3. Lili says

    Does this HAVE to be refrigerated for 4 weeks or can i use it now

    • Lisa Longley says

      You can use it right away, it just needs to be used within four weeks.

    This tasted great! Thank you for the recipe! Just one question, how can I make it thicker? It was a little runny.

    • Lisa Longley says

      I’m so glad you liked this! This just kind of is how this sauce is. It’s a little on the thinner side.
