WHAT YOU NEED-

  • Buttermilk– The key to get creamy Ranch is buttermilk, when combined with mayo, it gives you the perfect consistency. Use either whole or low-fat buttermilk for this Ranch recipe.
  • Mayo– Another key ingredient is mayo! Be sure to use high-quality mayo, I highly recommend using Hellman’s classic mayonnaise.
  • Ranch Powder– For true Wingstop ranch flavors, be sure to use the Hidden Valley ranch powder! Using the restaurant style Ranch powder will give you the ultimate results. The powder is what brings the flavors to this Ranch sauce.

  1. In a bowl, add the mayo, buttermilk and ranch powder.
  2. Whisk the mixture until fully combined and creamy.

QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE:

How long will this Ranch stay fresh for?

If stored in the fridge in an airtight container or jar, this Ranch can stay fresh for up to a week!

What if I don’t have buttermilk?

No worries! Just made your own buttermilk by combining 1/2 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup whole milk.

Can I freeze Wingstop ranch?

No, I do not recommend freezing this Wingstop Ranch.

How many Ranch packets do I need to buy?

1 packet has roughly about 1 ½ Tbsp powder, so I recommend you get 3 packets or get the large container of powder, so you can make this Ranch often!

Can I make this Ranch thicker?

If you don’t like the consistency of the Ranch, you can always make it thicker or thinner! Add either more or less buttermilk to adjust the consistency.

Can I make this a spicy Ranch?

Yes! For a kick, add some hot sauce or red pepper flakes to the mix!
