Steps:
- Mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, and garlic powder in a bowl. Measure 1⁄2 cup (116 g) of mayonnaise into a bowl along with 1⁄4 cup (55 g) of tomato ketchup, and 1⁄2 teaspoon (0.1 g) of garlic powder. Use a spoon or whisk to mix the sauce until the garlic powder is incorporated.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and half of the black pepper. Stir in 1⁄4 teaspoon (1.2 ml) of Worcestershire sauce and 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) of the black pepper. Taste the sauce at this point and decide if the sauce is spicy enough. If you prefer it spicier, use the full amount of black pepper.
- Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon (2 g) of black pepper. Continue to mix the sauce until the pepper is completely incorporated. For the best flavor, use freshly ground pepper instead of purchased ground pepper.
- Cover and refrigerate the sauce for at least 2 hours. Put a lid on the bowl or cover it with plastic wrap. Put the sauce in the fridge to chill for a few hours so the flavors develop. Dip fried chicken, wings, celery sticks, or carrot sticks in Zaxby's sauce. Store the sauce for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

This sauce is really good with chicken and a great alternative to the traditional BBQ sauce. I like the full teaspoon of black pepper. This is also great on a chicken sandwich.
