"Donkey Sauce" for burgers

[ Edited ]

I saved this recipe from Guy Fieri years ago and just came across it again in my recipe binder.  Great for July 4 cookouts. 

 

(I have no explanation for the name and don't even want to think about it!)

 

What's your favorite burger topper?

BOTH strike me as being super yummy and just personally the name makes a total "no-matter".

SO THRILLED to be able to have a cook out after our LOCAL PARADE I might whip some of each up to serve it there.

 

THEN, I might privately add a teaspoon or so of horseradish to the "Donkey Sauce" to see if I could get it to kick a little higher!!!

Lots of garlic in that recipe. I'm inclined to think @deepwaterdotter 's version fits my Midwestern tastes. Will try it the next time we grill burgers.

If you are a little put off  by the amount of garlic in the recipe, roasted garlic doesn't have the stronger and more pungent taste of garlic used in its raw state.
