Steak sauce? There’s only one sauce suitable for steak: Bearnaise.

Although horseradish is good, too. For those who can’t manage it straight, don’t mix with mayo, try mixing it with sour cream. Much better.

Guilden’s Spicy Brown Mustard rocks. The only thing I don’t eat it on is ice cream. Yet.

Oh, I’ve been known to sprinkle the cajun seasoning on an item from time to time… You know… I’ll throw it on corn, potatos, hamburgers, salad, soup, bread, other condiments… I’m pretty sure a scrape of roadkill tastes good with the stuff.

What’s my favourite condiment? Where do I start?

Encona Bajan Hot Sauce (with habaneros!)  
Horseradish  
Coleman’s Mustard (especially the powder that you mix yourself)  
Geeta’s Premium Mango Chutney  
Geeta’s Tomato Chutney  
Geeta’s Lime Pickle  
Damn near anything with a Geeta’s label on it  
Crystal Hot Pepper Sauce (in agreement with **mangeorge** on its superiority over Tabasco)  
Course-ground black pepper  
Heinz Ketchup (living here in the UK has allowed me to appreciate it more, since most UK ketchups are watery and sugary)  
Onion salad (with mint, like the kind you get at Indian restaurants)

**ultress** , I had no idea there was a “Duke’s mayo.” The lawyers have been notified.
