- 2 tablespoons buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard

Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a bowl or mason jar, mix together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, yellow mustard, ground pepper, salt, sugar, and garlic salt. Stir well until fully combined.

- This sauce is best served chilled and freshly made but can be stored refrigerated for up to a week.
- Great as a substitute for traditional tomato-based barbecue sauces, especially with smoked or grilled chicken.
