That sauce goes with a lot of things. I'm guessing it was solid.

My son told me that I should have dipped my cheese curds in marinara or ranch. I love both, but marinara gives me heartburn and ranch gives me headaches. We had some extra sauce from our Chick-Fil-A the day before sitting on the table, so I thought "what the hell". It was delicious.

You have me intrigued -- if not steak, how do you use A1? I have incorporated it into meatloaf glaze at times, maybe a splash in chili on rare occasions - but nothing else I recall. Just curious.

I put Chick-Fil-a Sauce on my Culver’s Mushroom and Swiss Burger. My son said it was blasphemy. I also dipped my cheese curds in it. Thoughts?

Freddy's sauce is far superior. Well, and Freddy's burgers are also superior. But if you're going to dip any burger place's burger into their sauce, B-Bops burger dipped in their ranch is probably tops.

Culver’s ranch is horrific. It makes their cheese curds worse than they should be.

They also have the only fast food fish sandwich I’ll eat.

Culvers and Sonic both baffle me. They both have legit fast-food cheese curds, and both have absolutely TERRIBLE ranch. Why not enhance the experience rather than ruin it?

Love Freddy's burgers. Agree that they are the best. Have not had B-Bops.

It is beyond baffling. How hard is it to make good ranch? There’s no way it’s expensive to do.

They're charbroiled or something - I don't know, but they pair really well with the ranch. I don't ever dip any other burgers in ranch, but it just works with theirs.

It's really dumb, yes. Even if you're going to buy third party pre-packaged stuff (which, both of them have their own labels on them, so I don't know if they do that) - just DON'T buy crap? This has always made me shake my head.

And, to go further - you need the right texture of ranch with certain cheeseballs. The Sonic stuff is like Elmer's paste, which isn't right with their cheeseballs. You need a thin ranch.

I can't stand CFA sauce. It's not quite ketchup, it's not quite bbq sauce, it's not quite steak sauce. It has an identify crisis.

Cane's sauce is awesome. I wish I had a gallon jug of that. My mom has made a copycat recipe, but I havne't tried it myself.

But then again, I don't hate Culvers ranch. Sure it's not a high-quality buttermilk ranch like Wingstop has, but it's better than nothing.
