This Zesty tasty sauce made popular by Outback Steakhouse is easy to whip up! Pair this Copycat Outback Bloom Sauce with a Bloomin' Onion or Onion rings for the perfect snack!
My husband always says that (insert whatever food here) is just a vehicle for the sauce….whatever the sauce may be. I love the sauce that gets served with the Bloomin’ Onion at Outback Steakhouse, so I wanted to get to the bottom of that recipe. It’s tangy and spicy, and really would be delightful on anything you can dip….not just a bloomin’ onion. Serve this Copycat Outback Bloom Sauce with Outback Bloomin' Onion Petals or Air Fryer Green Bean Fries for the perfect snack!
The base for the outback bloom sauce is very similar to the Zax Sauce, but the additions are different. The bloom sauce packs a spicy punch of horseradish, where the Zax Sauce is very mild. After playing around with a couple different ingredients, I think this sauce is nearly identical to the actual sauce that is served at Outback. Give it a try and let me know what you think! Try dipping these Air Fryer Asparagus Fries into the sauce- YUM! Want something less spicy? Try the Copycat BIG MAC SAUCE, In-n-Out Sauce or Copycat Chick-fil-A Sauce!
How to make Copycat Outback Bloom Sauce:
- Get all the ingredients together: mayonnaise, creamy horseradish, ketchup, paprika, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper. Add everything to a medium bowl and then whisk well to combine.
- Place the mixture covered in the ridge for at least 3 hours to let the flavors meld together.
- Serve with your favorite dippers such as Outback Bloomin' Onion Petals, Air Fryer 'Fried' Pickles, or on top of a delicious Air Fryer Burger.

Hey lady 🙂 This sauce looks so good. Do you have an onion ring recipe?
Allyson says
It is so good! I am usually lazy and use store bought onion rings (i know, terrible!), but this one looks fabulous and they are baked instead of fried! http://www.finecooking.com/recipes/oven-baked-onion-rings-ellie-krieger.aspx

Allison Hahn says
MMM fried onion ring deliciousness!

Kare says
All I have to say is that I one hundred percent agree with your husband. Food items are just vehicles for sauce (or dip, I can change it out with dip as well).
Allyson says
LOL! He would love to hear that, although these days I pretty much feel the same way. It's all about the sauce!
sandy says
this sauce is also great with sweet potato fries
Allyson says
Oh! I will totally have to try that!
Chelsea says
U should try it with fried pickles and fried mushrooms....I make it all the time, my husband and I call it fat night lol
Allyson says
Oh that sounds AMAZING! I have a great air fryer fried pickles recipe to lighten that up too!
sandi says
Buy some chipolte seasoning at the bulk store. Add just a slight amount to some mayo and mix. Let is sit in the fridge for a bit. Stir again to make sure it is mixed thoroughly. You will love this! and oh so simple. It has a nice kick to it. You can experiment as to how spicy you want it. You dont need much at all. start with just a bit of the seasoning on the tip of a soon... that's how spicy it can be. Enjoy!
Amanda says
This sauce is also super yummy on fried pickles!
Allyson says
It sounds like all my dreams come true!
Joan Buell says
Please Know that when I write the changes I make to a recipe it is so I can refer back to it...not to correct the way YOU made it. First, I doubled the recipe, as I knew 1/2 cup of dip wouldf not be enough. I used only 1 tbsp horseradish in whole batch, and only a pinch of cayenne so that kids would like it. It was yummy.
Allyson says
Glad you liked it!
Chantal Ouellet says
Is it creamy custard?
I am from Quebec and this product does not tell me anything. Thank you in advance.
Allyson says
It's just a dipping sauce...
Mary says
Great recipe. Tried as is and it is good, im not a fan of oregano so I made another batch without oregano added tb sugar and a dash of texas pete all I can say is this stuff is good
Pegg says
What mayonnaise did you use?
Allyson says
I just use lower fat Hellmans or Kraft!
